Well I noticed that the code is a little 'rough' to say the least. Despite
being pushed as the 'fastest browser around', it tends to bork if ANY CFLAGS
or LDFLAGS are used to tweak or customize the build.

Personally, since I compile most of the code for this box, I like to link
all GCC code with libots. This prevents any problems since most of the core
of my OS is built with Compaq C.

That's part of the reason I was so surprised when ever I attempted to link
against libots. I would get so many funky errors it wasn't even funny. Such
as the linker rolling snake eyes stating the "-O3 is an unrecognized option"
or "/usr/lib/firefox-1.0.4 not recognized. Not a file or dir".

So basically what I did was, I went ahead and compiled everything with the
default settings then went in to the individual object dirs and rebuilt
those portions with cflags/ldflags...that was the only way to get it to
build that way I needed it.

RECAP: I think the problem with the code is two fold. The Mozilla code is
somewhat 'touchy' at best and two, CFLAGS/LDFLAGS aren't being carried over
properly from one build dir to the next [aka funky Makefiles and Configure
script. Well talk to you later, and thanks for the tip... Will L G

We don't specifically build against Firefox 1.0.4, so it is possible
that it doesn't build against this anymore. You should try building
against a new version of Firefox, such as 1.0.6
