Check updates-testing to see if any affected gecko using packages are
in the pipeline as updates already.  Start filing bugs against the
packages which use the gecko engine and ask for updates.  Since this
is a critical security update, you'll be hard pressed to make a
persuasive argument that in this case it was worth waiting for the
other packages to build. Security can trump functionality.
