By the way, since this problem is already causing Ubuntu LTS systems to break, it may make sense to implement a quick stopgap solution. One possibility is to change the version of Firefox in 16.04 to "firefox- esr" (Extended Support Release). While this release will only be supported by Mozilla until March 2018, which is not enough for LTS, it's available now and works.
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/your-hardware-no-longer-supported: "Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) will continue to work with older processors but will not receive updates beyond ESR version 52. Firefox ESR version 59, scheduled for release in March 2018, will no longer be supported."
