It's always a little bit, hmmm, space-wasting when you compile the stuff
from CVS. I mean - Mozilla is HUGE. And CVS is even more huge. Handling
of that beast is not that easy (it takes 1.5 hours to compile on our
2x2.5 GHz dual processor machine with UW320 raid 0 disks).

As far as I remember we did or found corresponding bugzilla entries. I
have to recheck how the state is. 

Our compile framework based on PTXdist does pretty much automate the
whole build, so I can test a new release rapidly.
