The changes are pretty minor, mostly just gyp/moz.build changes. Does any of this stuff need to go upstream anywhere?
Would need to see the patch.
Yeah, sorry, I'm mass-filing bugs and then pushing patches for review in batches. The changes are here:

Hmmm. Where is HAVE_XLOCALE being set?

Sure woud be nice if these tests did actually run on iOS. un-possible?

I don't honestly know, I think I was just silencing a warning here. This probably isn't a necessary part of the patch, just killing warnings made it easier for me to find all the build errors while porting.

I could probably spend more time to get these building, but running tests on device on iOS is hellish. The only tests I have running so far are jit tests, and that took an awful lot of effort. I'm happy to file a followup bug, I don't remember what the exact issue I was working around was.

Please either figure out what's causing this or revert the change.

These tests are pretty important, so I'm uncomfortable with having them just
commented out. If we're going to land an iOS port, then it should have tests.

Okay, but that does seem a bit of an unfair burden given that: a) they're disabled on more than one existing platform and b) I barely even have builds yet, let alone tests.
Can I punt that to a follow-up? I'll put the bug number in a comment in the moz.build file.
Well, my question is when the follow-up is going to get done.

I just noticed that and it seems bad. We should fix that, right? I'd certainly
be happy to have them build but not run it automation for now, if that's what
you're looking for.

I'm not really following this line of argument. There are existing tests that
are designed to run standalone precisely in the service of facilitating
independent testing of this section of code. If you're at the point where
the CPP unit tests would otherwise want to compile and link (and if not,
why is this even an issue), then why can't these tests be run?
Unfortunately running tests on iOS isn't as simple as running a binary. Apple doesn't provide facilities for running a binary and gathering the output, it has to be packaged into an app bundle and signed etc, and even then there's no API for running a binary outside of a debugger. Even if I get these tests building, getting them running is likely to be a significant effort. (I spent more than a week getting jit-tests working.) Even if I get them running, I don't have any CI at all for iOS builds right now, and I don't even have a plan for CI for tests, so I'm not sure what the hurry is. I certainly understand that automated tests are important and that we should be testing what we ship, but we don't even have a plan to ship this code yet. I think filing a bug to track this work so that we can prioritize it against all the other work required to ship this code is a sane plan, and that not building these tests for iOS right now isn't going to do any harm.
After talking with brad, r=me.

Please file a bug to get these tests running. This should block
any exposure of WebRTC code to any real-world iOS populations.

This turns out to be easy:
https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/media/mtransport/third_party/nICEr/nicer.gyp#149

The gypfile defines it on the commandline, but then mbslen.c unconditionally defines it on Darwin. That seems to be the only file that define is used in, so I can just remove the define from the gyp file instead, since the .c file takes care of it.
