Have you read the instructions on compiling at mozilla.org?  If not, you
should.  The mozilla codebase is horridly complex and even compiling it
is difficult.  Let me recommend that you get the Debian source package
and build it instead.  That way you know that things are set to sane
default values and you will actually get it to build.
