Six places in the Firefox code base use the word "firt" instead of "first". One uses "firth" instead of "fifth". "Firth" is apparently a real word, used to describe certain bodies of water in Scotland. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firth

We used to have bugs full of these spelling fix suggestions for the times you needed a no-op commit in order to retrigger builds. Now we just have build infrastructure with self-service retriggers...
