To build Firefox with support for process sandboxing, you currently
pass the "--enable-content-sandbox" flag. On Windows, using the
"--enable-content-sandbox" flag causes an extra DLL to be built -
sandboxbroker.dll - which is responsible for providing all of our
process sandboxing functionality.

In bug 985252 [1] and friends, we're working on implementing process
sandboxing for processes other than content processes (in this case,
GMP plugin processes specifically). This means that we're de-coupling
"--enable-content-sandbox" from the building of sandboxbroker.dll; the
DLL will be built in all Windows Firefox builds regardless of whether
"--enable-content-sandbox" is specified, and it will be included in
the Firefox installer. This change should only affect Windows builds
and it looks like the installer size increase is about 61K or 0.18%.

Let me know if there are concerns regarding this change.

Thanks!
  Tim
