No it didn't.  The update to nspr 4.9 (which I didn't do) caused the breakage, which was seen as soon as nss was rebuilt (which I did).  I 
didn't make any functional changes to nss.  The fix I put into nspr (after the BS got broken), did seem to work, as nss rebuilt against it 
successfully and was installable again afterward.  And yes, I acknowleged that I should have installed it locally first and apologize.

The epoch shouldn't be needed with the pkgconfig Require that you switched to, since it's provided virtually without an Epoch.  The libnspr4 
require that Luc commented on should have the Epoch still (although I don't think removing it technically breaks anything, but it does 
basically make it so that the version of the require isn't enforced).
