--- Comment #2 from Callum Gibson <callumgibson at optusnet.com.au> ---
Confirming this affects all mozilla-related ports including libxul,
firefox(-esr) and I believe thunderbird too.

Through some investigation it appears to be a bug in ld in base. If you use ld
from binutils instead, the libxul.so will build.

I couldn't find a way to make either clang nor ports use a non-default ld so I
just hacked a symlink to get a working browser, but hopefully this information
will be useful for someone who has more of a clue.
