    111111 Please be advised that I no-longer normally test this while EARLY_BETA_OR_EARLIER is defined,
    112  because of apparent opt-ins for various things. That define is normally not present in beta9.

     113 but in firefox-128 it was unset at or before 128.0b7.

    114115The early betas for 92.0 and 93.0 needed static libstdc++.a to link logalloc-replay (that specifies -static-libstdc++). In later betas that was not compiled. While using a static system lib (outside of rust) is annoying, the expected lifetime of a firefox beta is short and this requirement can be remembered if a vulnerability in libstdc++ is ever disclosed. I assume this requirement will continue for early betas (those where EARLY_BETA_OR_EARLIER is defined in build/defines.sh).
