Mozilla hasnt been developing for 9x since version 1.2.1, so any SDKs 
would be out of date and unusable with newer code

 From http://wiki.mozilla.org/Gecko:SDK
"When downloading the Gecko SDK, it is important to choose the version 
that corresponds to the earliest version of Mozilla that you wish to 
target. In other words, you shouldn't download the 1.7 Gecko SDK if you 
want to use your component with Mozilla 1.6. This is important because 
binary compatibility is ensured only with future versions of the Gecko 
runtime"

I dont see a SDK for versions preceeding 1.6

The Gecko SDK doesnt seem to be available for Macs from Mozilla, only 
Windows and Linux. There is the following note on the above website tho,

"The Gecko SDK is not officially supported for other platforms, though 
for some other platforms it may be available under the contrib 
(http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.7/contrib/) 
subdirectory. The Gecko SDK is also output by a normal Mozilla build 
under dist/sdk."
