36506 - The mddepend.pl doesn't work for BeOS.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 36296

(SeaMonkey :: Build Config, defect, P3)

Description

[Yannick Koehler]

In order for the mddepend.pl to work with BeOS we need the included patch.  The reason being that the BeOS format 
of the generated dependancy file include a space between the first name and the ':'.  Therefore the "/s*" is a 
perl modification to accept any space between the first name and the ":".
