16193 - deleting static const breaks solaris native build

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

Description

[Tomi Leppikangas]

Kipps changes to
mozilla/layout/html/style/src/nsCSSKeywords.cpp and
mozilla/layout/html/style/src/nsCSSProps.cpp
breaks solaris native compiler with error:
Error: Non-const function nsCString::__SLIP.DELETER__B() called for const
object.

When downgraded to versions nsCSSKeywords.cpp/3.10 and nsCSSProps.cpp/3.17
solaris compiles ok.

Obviously I can't reproduce this on linux, so I need *alot* more information to
be able to do anything about it. Thanks!

I am not c++ expert, but can you delete const objects? kNullStr is defined
as static const, and then deleted, i guess that its the problem. (my summary
line is all wrong) I get it compile in solaris by removing const keyword,
here is a patch:
