In talking to people this looks to be a win95 specific bug not win98 or NT...

Mozilla daily builds on 3/15/00 and 3/16/00 won't start.  Splash screen comes up 
then disappears.  No error message .... nothing 

The 3/14/00 build did not have this problem.  
Yes, I deleted the mozilla registry files and the users50 directory.

When running mozilla with -console
I get this
======
stdout directed to dynamic console

Entered MigrateProfileInfo.

=============================

Please tell me you are still supporting win95, some in #mozilla said that was 
not the case.
this blocks testing on Win95, and the people who do smoketesting for the tip are 
on Win95, so we need this, pretty please!

See also bug #32166 which is for the same failure to start, but for the 
commercial bits, on the trunk, win95 only, beginning sometime on the 14th.
Priority: P3 → P1
ruslan : doesn't win32 include win95? If so, is the below correct? (from 
nsSocketTransport.cpp). Perhaps this is what is preventing seamonkey from 
running on windows 95 [CancelIO not on win95]. 

#if defined (WIN32)
    // XXX/ruslan: we must cancel on Win32 due to winsock implementation details 
    // on some of Microsoft target OSes (98, NT4, Win2K, but not 95); This may 
    // need to be moved into NSPR eventually
    PRInt32 handle = PR_FileDesc2NativeHandle (mSocketFD);
    CancelIo ((HANDLE)handle);
#endif
Gagan, this is currently a blocker for opening the trunk. Please comment when 
you are on it.
This code was rolled back yesterday night. Could you please try again?
The mozilla build, on the turnk, 2000031708, now launches and runs on win95 (for 
me). Will check the commercial build in a moment (but I assume it will now run). 
Thanks.
The commercial build, on the trunk, 2000031709, now launches and runs on win95 
(for me). Marking WORKSFORME. Thanks ruslan.
