Bugzilla is not a general support forum, but a meeting place for the developer
community. Problems like that should be taken to the newsgroups, IRC or the
mozillazine forums first. If it can be confirmed there, that this is indeed a
bug, a bug should be filed.

Mozilla.org is also not responsible for 3rd-party-howtos like Henrik Gemal's
build instructions. Building Mozilla/Mozilla Firebird is a non-trivial task, so
check with the experts on IRC/forums/newsgroups first.

Marking INVALID.
