 nss >= 3.64.0
 
-At the time of writing, these are not in the book because of the move to a new server, but the current instructions and the patch for nss-3.63.0 apply.

-As of 89.0b3 it reports that the UI has changed, and allowed me to select a them - I chose 'System' and my prvious 88.0 session came back. I see a lot of complaints about the new themes, but I cannot see any difference. One report said you have to toggle browser.proton.enabled in about:config and restart firefox, but after a fresh boot that was already enabled and I still cannot see the difference, nor can I find the alternative themese which were offered when I first booted this!

 The prayer of the user - "From people working  on UIs, good lord preserve us."
 
+Note that gcc-11.1.0 as released cannot build 89.0betas, gcc-10 was ok, as is clang-12.0.
+That has now been fixed upstream at gcc [https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=100644] patch is currently at [https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~ken/test/] pending further testing. Obviously you need to rebuild gcc to use this.
