This bug is 
a) invalid because the xpi is possible broken
b) a dupe because XPI install is broken and we disabled XPI install in 1.3
because of this

Just tested Moz. 1.3.1rc.  Everything works, including .XPI install.  Thanks for
the fix.  Spellchecker for 1.3 installed without a problem and works properly.
