make[4]: *** [xpc3250.dll] Error 1


This is similar to Bug #217009, but that patch from that bug doesn't seem to
exist on the Trunk.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:





This just started happening in the last few days. I've tried a build clean, a
build distclean, and even deleting the CVS "?" files, but no luck.

I've just noticed that this error isn't happening on my Thunderbird or Firebird
builds. That is, xpc3250.dll is created when building those two birds.

OK, after trying to sort this one out, including illogical compile parameters
like  "-Wl,--whole-archive -Wl,--no-whole-archive" I gave up and deleted
everything under mozilla/ excluding mozilla/.mozconfig.

After repulling all files and building, problem has gone away. Todays depend
build also worked fine.

Resolving WFM.

v'ing as I had this problem again, and a fresh pull fixed the problem.
