To be clear .. I don't know if the compiled version of firefox we
shipped has a DRM widevine that will work with netflix .. the error you
are getting seems to happen because of where:

libwidevinecdm.so

was compiled (against which glibc-devel).

so .. maybe adding in the google widevine and somehow disabling the
built in firefox one might work .. OR .. disabling the google version
might work, etc.
