Egads, man! Converting from SeaMonkey -> Firebird should be as simple as:

1) Removing the old build from your tree: make -f client.mk distclean’
2) Configuring your build for FireBird using the options recommended at http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/browser/README.html
3) Repulling with the updated mozconfig file so that you pull the firebird code.
4) Rebuilding as normal.

It would have been that simple if I hadn't copied too much of gemal's .mozconfig. Btw, cls is right. It would have been that simple if I hadn’t copied too much of gemal’s .mozconfig.
