Well, most other packages are trying several different pkg-config files,
so it works for most.
Anyways, as per the xulrunner plan for *lenny*, only plugins and
extensions for iceape should be building against iceape-dev, and
therefore should build perfectly fine with xulrunner-dev, modulo
the pc check. I really wonder what in OOo fails to build with
xulrunner-dev.

Sorry for that, but iceape 2.0 was deemed to be uploaded some day, and
iceape 1.1 was even removed from testing by request of the security team
a few days ago.
