If it is really a problem to distribute builds of the freely available source code of Mozilla, then Mozilla just is not real opensource. So, plan of action would be: Drop mozilla from Debian. Make a press release 'Debian is sorry to have to announce that the Mozilla suite of programs can't be released with the Debian GNU/Linux software distribution because blah blah balh'. Stand back and watch. Enough people like and use Mozilla that I think it would get wide attention. Enough people like and use Debian anough that they won't switch away from Debian. (Of course, just IMHO. IANADD and IANA Mozilla User) cheers -- vbi -- featured link: http://fortytwo.ch/gpg/intro
