Hmm. --with-pthreads=no didn't work. ldd still shows pthreads being
pulled in. Maybe this is a mozilla bug?

Maybe I'll try a little harder to get your 1.6.2 package working...
I'd just like to see it work at this point.

I could probably set you up with a login to my Qube if you want,
should I do that? Building minimo only takes 8-10 hours compared to
your 30 hours (!). Email me off the list if you want.

I've heard of problems with Mozilla not building on other archs too,
which isn't too cool. Mozilla is a really nice piece of software, when
it works!

Thanks for your work so far.
