patch a la timeless

i do not understand why  nsNativeComponentLoader::Init is being called before
nsComponentManagerImpl::Init.

I am seeing the same error with a debug build under RHEL4 (UA: Mozilla/5.0 (X11;
U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20050816 Firefox/1.0+). 

The patch makes things work, but I can't speak to the underlying cause.

This works for me now. I'll post the .mozconfig just for good measure...

. $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig

mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/ff-normal

ac_add_options --enable-optimize
ac_add_options --disable-debug

ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2
ac_add_options --enable-xft
ac_add_options --disable-freetype2
ac_add_options --enable-svg
ac_add_options --enable-canvas

ac_add_options --disable-tests

where . $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig is: 

mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=browser
ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
