Hmm, let's tag it 'sarge' instead unless someone shows otherwise.

We're now down to 1 RC bug it seems, but this is still outstanding. I had
heard from other members of the release team that an upload was expected
this weekend, but that appears not to have happened. Since there seems to
be a consensus that iceweasel should not ship /usr/lib/firefox, and this bug
blocks a significant fraction of the remaining RC bugfixes for etch, I'm
going to go ahead with preparing an NMU for this against the current
unstable now.

Unfortunately this RC bugfix upload was a new upstream version with an
extensive diff, and the new version FTBFS on alpha with a timeout where the
old version did not. I'm still in the process of determining if this is a
regression in xulrunner, or if it's a regression in the toolchain since the
last time xulrunner was built on alpha.
