Mark, will this be starting in sync with FF 19.0b1 ?

[Mark Banner (:standard8)]

No, we'll probably go for somewhere around 15th (i.e. in sync with b2).

The windows en-US build has failed out copying some mochitests. In a release build it looks like: 

e:/builds/moz2_slave/tb-rel-c-beta-w32-bld/build/objdir-tb/mozilla/_virtualenv/Scripts/python.exe /e/builds/moz2_slave/tb-rel-c-beta-w32-bld/build/mozilla/config/nsinstall.py -t "/e/builds/moz2_slave/tb-rel-c-beta-w32-bld/build/mozilla/content/html/content/test/test_hidden.html" ... "/e/builds/moz2_slave/tb-rel-c-beta-w32-bld/build/mozilla/content/html/content/test/test_mozaudiochannel.html" ../../../../_tests/testing/mochitest/tests/content/html/content/test

The total line length is 33904 characters, each arg is at most 130 characters long.

In comparison, a dep build begins
e:/builds/moz2_slave/tb-c-beta-w32/build/objdir-tb/mozilla/_virtualenv/Scripts/python.exe /e/builds/moz2_slave/tb-c-beta-w32/build/mozilla/config/nsinstall.py -t "/e/builds/moz2_slave/tb-c-beta-w32/build/mozilla/content/html/content/test/test_hidden.html" ...

This is only 31409 characters long, because the builder shortens by 8 characters in 312 instances. In suggesting that there is a 32K character limit somewhere, which the combination of more tests and longer builder name causes breakeage.
