Don't feel privileged. Neither Mozilla nor Firefox would build
for me yesterday on a freshly updated FreeBSD 4.11-STABLE
either.  Same error message, as seen earlier when trying to do
a clean install of GNOME-2.10 when it hit the Mozillla build.

By contrast, a clean DragonFlyBSD STABLE of 27 March
has loaded XFree86, xfce4, Opera, and *Mozilla* w/o
hassle with 'pkg_add -rv {above names}.

Smiling now ...... ;-)
