Compilers at Igalia. LLVM, RISC-V, WebAssembly

My Igalia colleague Luke W. managed to fix a ~24 year old Firefox bug (a textarea rows attribute issue, with the fix to be included in Firefox 128). Also see the HN discussion on that fix leading to people sharing other very long-running bugs in open source projects https://lnkd.in/eXNp3UPB If my Bugzilla query is correct, there are 202 still-open bugs on Mozilla's Bugzilla that are older than this. https://lnkd.in/edD7tRVA On the LLVM side, it looks like we've got some very old still-open bugs too https://lnkd.in/eXdbi_p3

33654 - TEXTAREA incorrectly applying ROWS= and COLS= (horizontal / vertical scrollbar extra space, with overlay scrollbars disabled)

Since you linked the LLVM issues page, I just found that I am working on the 2nd oldest open llvm issue. (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/1259) :)

Thanks. 177 remaining bugs :) Did some cleanup!
