Actually - don't worry - it's not related to architecture.

I cannot see any changes in either the way that we rebrand (by setting 
values in source/debian/distribution.ini)

Or in the way that firefox handles that file in 
/source/browser/components/distribution.js

The only thing I think has been changed, is the chroot that we build in. 
Am just trying to confirm with Amardeep as I think he made that change.
