[OpenIndiana-discuss] [solarisx86] Firefox

[ken mays]

Best for users to use with Firefox 29.0.1 or 24.6.0ESR. It'll take awhile for many of the supporting distros to migrate to the GCC 4.9.x compiler series which lowers
 the overhead of building modern code like OpenMP 4.0 and C++1y.

I'm told the increased C++11 usage is making it take longer to build since
the compilers previously used don't support the required C++11 features.

(C++11 is in Solaris Studio 12.4 beta & the latest gcc versions, but those
  aren't what previous Firefox releases had been built with.)
