Hmm,

I managed to get mozilla M15 built, but am having problems running it now:

% run-mozilla.sh
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/mozilla/dist/bin
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mozilla/dist/bin:/u/scbrown/lib:/usr/openwin/lib
       SHLIB_PATH=/mozilla/dist/bin
          LIBPATH=/mozilla/dist/bin
      MOZ_PROGRAM=viewer
      MOZ_TOOLKIT=
        moz_debug=0
     moz_debugger=
/mozilla/dist/bin/libgtksuperwin.so: Unsupported relocation type 10in non-PLT
relocations

I am guessing that this may be something specific to the "macppc" port, as
I haven't
seen it discussed by anyone else.  If somebody with more of a clue knows why
I'm getting this, please let me know if I need some different compilation flags or
if
the tool-chain on "macppc" is slightly broken and needs fixing, etc.

Thanks,
Steve
