When I change a keyboard shortcut in browser-sets.inc, I have to |touch browser.xul| for my change to take effect when I run |make| in mozilla/browser/. If I don't touch browser.xul, my change has no effect. It took me a few hours of recompiling to figure out this bug :( cc'ing XUL preprocessor people (hixie, bryner)
The workaround for this would be to just make any preprocessed file always be updated in the jar. Otherwise, we get to implement dependencies.
preprocessor now supports being run with a -d argument to make it list out the files a file depends on rather than preprocessing the files
everytime i go in the browser the whole page shakes....

I'm guessing this has been fixed in the 14 years since there was meaningful bug activity.
