This might actually be the most tested release of r3dfox before release. On account of me making a "test" but optimized PGO build to then apply changes to like updating the theme or other minor changes that wouldn't require recompiling. Except I didn't feel like doing those today, and rather than have the builds just sit for a while, I'll just release them now.

The portable builds are fully portable, the profile directory is inside the browser folder. It does not touch appdata at all.

Requirements to use the browser on a given OS: Vista: Service Pack 2 + KB971644 Platform Update 7 RTM/SP0 and later: Should just work.

Notable bugs: The 32 bit build is built with --disable-sandbox. With the sandbox enabled under Vista, the browser fails to open multiple processes which breaks the browser. The 64 bit build is fine. Considering Mypal68 globally disables the sandbox, I don't think it's that bad. If this really is a big issue then please pr a fix.

Cairo/GDI backend ignores system cleartype settings and causes crashes on older versions of Windows and crashes without e10s.

r3dfox specific changes on top of the previous v139.0.4-2 build: No major changes worth noting.

Although https://github.com/Eclipse-Community/r3dfox/issues/320 is fixed now, but that was fixed in upstream.

Haven't tested on XP (OCAPI) nor have I extensively stability tested.

Please let me know what bugs or issues you encounter with it.
