It works fine, but after updating NSPR to 4.23 it sometimes crashes randomly (the same behavior was in the previous FF).

Yes, it is a known issue, though why the crash is a mystery, note no reference to NSPR4 until way down the stack. It is why NSPR4 and NSS are still in exp. I'd suggest downgrading them. Not easy but not too hard on the command line.

Other then that issue, I've found the GCC 9.9.2 builds fairly stable. There was a few memory related changes needed to get it to compile and needed "-flifetime-dse=1 -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks" to work around Mozilla's crappy coding, memset() related crashes otherwise, something to do with doing the memset() at the wrong time.

I'd suggest downgrading them.
in my comp:
NSS is 3.23.0-4
NSPR is 4.23.0-1
if I downgrade NSPR to 4.12.0-4 FF works fine
