Thanks for reporting. Very interesting what people take notice of. :)
Indeed you are correct, the timestamp of the upstream files dates back
to January 1980. This appears to be wrong. This is clearly an upstream
bug. The use-newer-timestamp-date.patch can't be applied because the
create_xpi.py script does not exist anymore.

I have forwarded this bug report to
