 * linux - no problems.
 * mac - expected failure on gu-IN for 3.0b1...3.0b5. Otherwise, no problems.
-* win32 - still in progress.
+* win32 - first run timed out because the updater tries to elevate its access rights on windows - the OS throws up a modal RunAs dialog when we try to run the updater which blocks any progress. Probably fallout from {{bug|437349}} in Fx3.0.2. This patch fixes it up:

+This should be fixed by {{bug|452128}} in 3.0.4, so that 3.0.4 -> 3.0.5 updates work without the patch
+* a second win32 run failed with the usual complaint that freebl3.chk and softokn3.chk differ ({{bug|404340}}), which is a pass in reality
