Which is obviously a bug, thank you very much. Up to the last update,
there was no need of using backport to get an up to date version of
IceWeasel, and IMHO that should not be required for people the only
want stable + security updates. I expect that it should be possible to
add libnss3 to the IceWeasel repository so that it's self contained.
