The security team has been dealing with NSS updates to stable, and I'd

tracker says the issue is not fixed in stable, and I'd think it's bad
practice to fix it in LTS before it's fixed in stable.

(While on the subject, there's another round of Iceweasel security
updates coming, along with NSPR and NSS fixes, this time)
