Indeed. I'd checked out the code from cvs since the source tar ball
didn't work for me.

Anway, I've been trying to build Xulrunner/Firefox on build 66Xen
during this weekend, and I got errors related libnspr4.a not found.
I'd hit this once earlier this year, but I don't remember how I'd
solved this problem :(

I've changed my role and am now learning to be a network admin. The
past five weeks have been very hectic, and it was only this weekend
that I'd made time. And like I've written above, I couldn't manage to
build a basic XulRunner/Firefox ! this is something I'm going to
investigate.
