Hi Friedhelm, hi all Debian x86 fans,

   The Firefox compile bug has already been resolved since some time for 
Debian 10 as it seems. Today it has updated from Firefox 102.4.0esr to 
102.5.0esr at me. It seems to be a Firefox only fix however, since gcc 
has not yet been updated for the 8 series. It is still gcc 8.3.0-6 and 
not 8.5 or later. According to gcc developers only the latest of the 8 
series is up-to-date and supported.

Cheers,
Elmar
