Unless someone makes a PR or something pops up, I will not be looking into this further.
I already fucking lied. I looked more into it.
It seems to be caused by the removal of the wow_helper by this commit.

I tried adding it back but ran into this error, and not sure what to do here.
I'm just going to build 128.0.2 without sandbox for now and maybe add this later as I'm too tired to debug this and I just want build out.
So I tried to get this working and I give up. Here's my files so far if you want to try to get this to work.
it will work if you install updates on Windows Vista SP2 32-bit.
OS: Windows Vista SP2 x86 (on real H/W), with ALL MS updates until its EoS, plus select WS2008SP2 updates manually installed (e.g. SHA-2 support)
Browser: r3dfox v128.0.2 x86 from here 😉
Proof:
I am pleasantly surprised how stable the compile is 👍 , however it's not devoid of several bugs (mostly in the GUI department and, in particular, in the HTTPS_only and DoH settings) ... But I'm pressed for time now, reports about those bugs will have to wait for later...
@e3kskoy7wqk We should probably either transfer this issue to your repo or just open a new issue there as it's an issue with the Windows Vista support.
Closed in favor of e3kskoy7wqk/Firefox-for-windows-7#83
Since I'm going to ignore the issue for now as other forks seem to ignore it, I'll open an issue in case others can figure it out. (Mypal68 always disables it)
The browser just doesn't spawn any other processes outside of the main browser process. This can be mitigated by running with MOZ_DISABLE_CONTENT_SANDBOX=1 and it seems to mostly work. However I have just decided to ship without the sandbox on the 32 bit build rather than require weird mitigations.
Unless someone makes a PR or something pops up, I will not be looking into this further.
32 bit build of ESR 115 with the broken sandbox if you want to try.
