Ok, I will assume a newer clang version will have this problem fixed.
Please let us know whether it works for you now.

However, out of interest, I would like to determine the exact upstream
revision which fixed it.  Could you please send me files that clang++
mentioned in your original post (if you still have them):

  clang++: note: diagnostic msg: /tmp/nsMsgMaildirStore-SbFLtj.ii
  clang++: note: diagnostic msg: /tmp/nsMsgMaildirStore-SbFLtj.sh

I can use these to reproduce the problem locally, without having to
duplicate your build environment, and compiling all the mozilla code.
