 rust >= 1.76.0, the workaround for rustc => 1.78.0 to remove code only useful for ARM which fails to compile is probably still needed (removing does no harm).
 
+If you are updating a very old system, and rust needs a newer LLVM, llvm-17.0.6 is good enough.
+
 The shipped icu remains at version 73.1 and will probably not change and eventually be replaced by shipped icu4x which gives no obvious benefits here and makes the build a little bigger and longer. To use system icu-74 or later, the fixes in the development book are still required.

+  Please be advised that I (ken) no-longer normally test this while EARLY_BETA_OR_EARLIER is defined,
  because of apparent opt-ins for various things. That define is normally not present in beta9
  but in firefox-128 it was unset at or before 128.0b7, and the same for 129.
