I never understood why it was set at 37; so every time I rebuilt I
incremented it. Most likely this has silently broken a ton of stuff, so
apologies.
Is there any clean way to resolve all this? 

For my repo, I'm thinking, do a mozilla rebuild with an epoch of 37,
which obsoletes the current epoch of 52 (eek), and increment the
release. Something like:

Obsoletes: mozilla = 52:1.6-1

I'm not even sure if that'd work, so if anyone has any better ideas, i'm
open to suggestions.

Cheers,
Matt
