I am guessing, but since libjs.a and libjsj.a aren't in the current 
compiled mozilla tree[there is libjsj.so, but nothing ~close~ to 
libjs.a], I think he is trying to compile the slink version of mozilla, 
a snapshot from 10/1998.  This is pretty much guaranteed to be a piece 
of crap no matter how you compile it.
