That's a weird statement. Even if Mozilla developers had such a wide
influence on the libc development any changes done in the library
now would still take years to make it to a substantial user base,
and only then Mozilla apps could benefit from it. I'm sure Robert's
comment was more about what to do on shorter timescale like for
Gecko 1.9 / FF 3.
