I think we can pass on this one. The release notes mention 1 thing fixed:

32.0.2 - Corrupt installations cause Firefox to crash on update

Diffing 32.0.1 to 32.0.2 (both have a broken symlink for media/webrtc/trunk/webrtc/tools/e2e_quality/audio/perf :) shows exactly one change, apart from the version:

The bug is at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1063052 and if I'm reading it correctly, it is a startup crash from binary installs (a couple of the pre-release builds, also from the release). Since nobody who managed to build and install it with our instructions has reported such a crash, I am very dubious that this will gain us anything.
