patch for mail/thunderbird

I am trying to figure out how much of sparc64 builds these days.  This port does not build and I would like permission to mark it BROKEN as I try to get a complete build.  Thanks.

Permission granted, though I would think this type of change would be covered under blanket approvals (or should be if it's not).

patch for mail/thunderbird

Wouldn't the underlying issue affect all gecko@ ports with browser engine? mail/thunderbird uses same engine as www/firefox-esr.

Also, I don't like the vague description. In case the issue is fixed upstream there's no way to discover or backport fix due to complete lack of details. Post a full build log that won't disappear in a year and/or fill in BROKEN with one line error excerpt.

That fix was upstreamed years ago. Later sparc64 conditional migrated from Makefile.in to moz.build.
