The original plan was to rnu some checks against libc version the binary is compiled with, but these turn out to be a little complicated: parsing out libc version from both static binary and host system requires text processing, and it's hard to make sure it works reliably across distributions. Instead, let's start with a very particular check against running Firefox on Ubuntu 16.04. References microsoft#2745
