nit: this line should be broken up to fit within the 80 character per line limit. It's currently at 82.

Side-note: Yes, there are many others in this file but we're trying to get new code to abide by the rule. :-)

I was wondering how this happened, and I see that widget/cocoa/ is one of only two directories in the entire tree (the other being config/external/nss) where we still have this in the moz.build file:

I just tried removing these lines in a local build. Once I fixed the warning that is the subject of this bug, the build succeeded. cpeterson, can you try doing that on try server? If it works, you can remove them in your patch and then we'll have one more guaranteed warning-free directory :)

Thanks, Stephen! I'll fix that line before landing.

I conveniently have a Try build from a few weeks ago that shows widget/cocoa is still not warning-free:

  https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=6680262edd88b62e37635db015146188c5ac23c3

There are some ObjC warnings-as-errors:

  widget/cocoa/nsChildView.mm:3605:10: error: 'NSView' may not respond to 'viewDidChangeBackingProperties' [-Werror]

Like you, I don't see these warnings locally. The Try builders use OS X 10.7, so perhaps they use an older Xcode SDK that doesn't know about the viewDidChangeBackingProperties method. The NSView docs says this method was added in OS X 10.7:
