Sorry, I don't follow exactly what this bug is describing. Did I break SeaMonkey with my patch in bug 985252? Is there something I can do to help here?
Bustage fix.

STR:
1. make package or make installer.
2. Install (or unpackage).
3. Try to run seamonkey.exe

Actual Results:
Error message: "Couldn't load XPCOM"

Expected Results:
SeaMonkey starts up properly

Hi Tim, Sorry for the bug spam. SeaMonkey needs to port the packaging changes (browser/installer/*) from https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/fbd06fa70b84

SeaMonkey patch in Comment 2. I suspect TB will also need the same fix.
