 I added
        GCC_REQD+=              4.4
 to devel/xulrunner/mozilla-common.mk which allowed the compile of
 xulrunner on NetBSD 4.0 to proceed a lot further - I'm reasonably
 sure that gcc 4.4 is beyond what is needed, given that NetBSD 5.0 has
 4.1.3 installed, and that seems to be OK (whereas the 4.1.2 from about
 2 years earlier, that's on NetBSD 4 is not - actual errors from it below)
 but pkgsrc seems to have nothing earlier than that 4.4 version to
 select, so that's what I asked for.
 
 Unfortunately, that's not enough, but now rather than a compiler issue,
 we're back to OS support issues, and I'm not sure what should be done
 to handle this one ...

 Perhaps this is going to mean that these packages will turn into
 NOT_FOR_PLATFORM for NetBSD 4.0 (which is a pity, as even though the
 old xulrunner still builds, and so the old firefox that uses it, there's
 no old version of seamonkey, which is the browser with the best UI of
 all of this set.)
 
 kre
 
 ps: for reference, when compiling with the standard 4.0 compiler, things
 abort much earlier in the build with errors like these (from a build of
 seamonkey, rather than xulrunner, but the error type is identical, from
 the same apparent file...)

 Those later errors continue thousands of times (literally - the lines extracted
 above are around 3150 lines into a build log file that is 8500+ lines long,
 and aside from the cleanup stuff at end, all of the rest of it looks just
 like those last few...)
