Yes, ...
but mozilla is pretty big, 17MB i think, so the compile will use lots of disk
space and compile time, so i prefer to know if it should work, or if there
should be major problems to it, and not discover after a night's compile time
what went wrong. Also a list of source dependencies would be nice.
Or even to know before i start downloading and compiling that it will not work
anyway.
Also the mozilla web pages are not very informative about non-i386
compilability, but then maybe i didn't search in the right place ...
