components/web/firefox/patches/firefox-02-environ-revised.patch

   1 Subprocesses launched by firefox via modules/subprocess have an empty
   2 environment due to incorrect assumptions about environ variable in the libc.
   3
   4 On Solaris, environ variable is not part of libc.so (weak binding
   5 only) and hence loading it from libc yields only a null pointer. This
   6 workaround gets environ variable directly from the firefox process.

   8 Patch not suitable for upstream; the idea might be.
