build log

`emerge firefox` errors with a segfault in the "build-script-build" program used internally in the firefox build on gentoo musl vanilla. Strangely, exporting the `FEATURES=nostrip` env var makes `emerge firefox` succeed.

I can't see how that's possible. It's more likely it only worked by chance on one build. stripping only takes effect at the very end..
