The steps i'm currently taking to test this:
moz-w32 slurps the mozilla-macosX-trunk.smi.bin to \\raistlin\overflow\mac
from back-step (7100 ppc, x-ref:upn), i double click
overflow:mac:mozilla-macosX-trunk.smi.bin
i copy "Mozilla" from mozilla-macosX-trunk to overflow:mac
i rename "Mozilla" to "Mozilla Package"

I:\tempoverflow\mac>junction "Mozilla Carbon" "Mozilla Package\Mozilla.app\Contents"

Created: I:\tempoverflow\mac\Mozilla Carbon
Targetted at: I:\tempoverflow\mac\Mozilla Package\Mozilla.app\Contents

This creates a magic junction which gets around the problem that MacOS9.0.4
refuses to open Mozilla.app

Back to the mac, I open
overflow:mac:Mozilla Carbon:MacOS
I double click Mozilla

Ideally of course, mozilla would launch and stuff. Less ideally, Mozilla would
give some helpful error. I tried it today and instead, I got the standard
SleepQInstall Trap.

That is of course bug 125411.

In order for normal users to run the package on macos, it needs a top level
alias file: bug 167091.

[Simon Paquet [:sipaq]]

This bug is targeted at a Mac classic platform/OS, which is no longer supported
by mozilla.org. Please re-target it to another platform/OS if this bug applies
there as well or resolve this bug.

I will resolve this bug as WONTFIX in four weeks if no action has been taken.
To filter this and similar messages out, please filter for "mac_cla_reorg".

I think it's safe to call this one as Wont Fix... since OS 9 is no longer supported.

[Martin Creutziger [:MMx]]

I vote for "WONTFIX", MacOS "Classic" has been dropped long ago.
