There are issues opened to do that and will probably happen soon with 
Firefox. Unluckily Bitwise only has the MozillaESR38 tree and I haven't 
been able to correctly communicate how SeaMonkey/Thunderbird are 
related. eg I want them to update their tree to the Thunderbird 38.8.0 
release tag (7 commits past Firefox 38.8.0 release tag) but I don't 
think Dmitiry quite understands the relationship between the repositories.
I also never get any communication about the latest configure options 
(or the odd fix that needs to be applied to all the apps) they're using 
to stay in sync with them.
I have to decide whether my next builds will follow along with Firefox 
and use the system nsprpub and nss libraries. (need to download Firefox 
and look at about:build I guess)
