Thanks for this, but unfortunately this version of 'nss' seems to
consistently fail its test suite on armhf, or at least it has failed 3
times in a row.

  https://hydra.gnu.org/build/1712083

Given the importance of the proper functioning of this package, I'm not
comfortable disabling the tests.

Do we have reason to believe that this update fixes security flaws?  Is
there a compelling reason not to revert this update until a version is
released that passes the test suite on our supported systems?

     Thanks,
       Mark

Thanks for pointing this out.

I agree.

Not as far as I know, although I assume there are some sort of trust
"problems" fixed in each release of nss-certs.

I'll revert it and investigate. I'd rather not wait for an upstream fix
if we can help it.

I notice know that this release appears to require a newer version of
nspr than we package [0]:

"The HG tag is NSS_3_27_2_RTM. NSS 3.27.2 requires NSPR 4.13 or newer."

What do you recommend I do? How about I make an nss-updates branch with
updates to nspr, nss, nss-certs, and possibly other updates in (gnu
packages gnuzilla), and build it on Hydra when resources are available?

At least some of these failures are caused by an expired test
certificate:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1323978

This breaks compilation of NSS 3.27.1 and 3.27.2 across all of our
architectures.

With the attached patch, I can build NSS 3.27.1 on x86_64. If we decide
to use this patch, let's build it on its own Hydra branch, because I
suspect there is some non-determinism in the test suite, and I'd rather
not make everyone try building it themselves if it fails on Hydra for
some reason.

By the way, Git shows the upstream patch as binary data, but if you
apply the attached patch to your work tree, there is plain text
annotation you can use to reproduce it. I recreate the annotation here:

I pushed this to the staging branch. We can see if it works in the next
evaluation.
