FWIW, it builds on Debian unstable on i686, so in general, it should be possible.

it's always possible by patching. This is what Debian did in that case as well.
So I can import that patch as well meanwhile. But it's always a timing issue. I want to submit FF on release day and very often it's not possible to get a fix in time.
It's always a good idea to look at Debian unstable when it comes to Firefox. The maintainer there, Mike Homney, is also a Firefox developer and Mozilla employee. So, he usually has an idea how to fix such issues.
to be honest, that's not a fix! As Wolfgang pointed out, such failures should be identified and fixed during the release phase. Adding this as a patch after release doesn't smell too good to me...
