it looks like suite still has some internal API e.g. nsISupportsArray.
]
As I pointed out in bug 450781 comment 17:

However unless you want type-unsafety in the code that uses it, then you need to either remove nsISupportsArray from the RDF code, or remove the RDF code from the bookmark code.

So I think you want the title of this bug to be "remove nsISupportsArray from RDF" or "remove bookmark usage of RDF" depending on what Neil prefers...
I don't know much about suite/app - maybe it really needs to be compiled differently depending on whether MOZ_ENABLE_LIBXUL is set or not.

The internal API I was referring to is best covered by bug 397277.
Oh opps, I missed this was suite/app/Makefile.in.

So MOZILLA_INTERNAL_API there is essentially if you're not building with MOZ_ENABLE_LIBXUL. So if you can still build a standard SeaMonkey successfully without it, then yes we can drop it, if you can't you may as well close this bug and just have a general post-libxul tidy up bug (and there's no point in filing that yet) - as you won't be able to drop it until post transfer to libxul.

It appears to build without MOZILLA_INTERNAL_API if you use XPCOM_GLUE_LDOPTS.

The /suite/ part is enough to compile an optim build.

The additional /mailnews/ part is needed to compile a debug build.
(Through I did not try to find out why.)

Probably because opt builds default to static mail which doesn't use this file.

I'd be surprised if a separate bug hasn't been filed on the debug mailnews bustage.

Av1, /suite/ part only.

Indeed, (in the meantime), bug 451903 :->

This hosed nye as well as my local build:

###!!! ASSERTION: nsTHashtable::Init() should not be called twice.: 'Error', file ../../dist/include/xpcom/nsTHashtable.h, line 327
###!!! ASSERTION: nsDirectoryService::RealInit Mustn't initialize twice!: '!gService', file /build/andrew/seamonkeyc/src/mozilla/xpcom/io/nsDirectoryService.cpp, line 506

it continues until it goes to register nsSuiteGlue, at which point it all falls apart.

OK, I backed this out.
I noticed a debug non-tracemalloc build did succeed without the backout.  Might need to use a tracemalloc-enabled build to see the problem.

With trace-malloc (compiled (and activated)) and this patch, but non-libxul,
my (clobber) Windows build runs fine (but real slow, as expected):

[
.../seamonkey-bin -register
]
Though I don't know what this option is... (not listed in -help)

Could someone else check this on Linux (or MacOSX) ?
seamonkey-bin is the Unix/Linux form of what is called seamonkey.exe on Windows and (IIUC) seamonkey.app on the Mac. IOW if you build a file by that name in a supposedly "Win32" context there's something fishy happening.

-register I don't know (and don't have it in -help on Linux). Maybe "make yourself the default browser"? Or else, something with rebuilding SeaMonkey's own lists of components etc.? Your guess is as good as mine.
-register is to force the component registration process without starting the application.

Does this block bug 394502 (moving to libxul)?
Strictly speaking, I don't think it does, because the MOZILLA_INTERNAL_API is wrapped in a MOZ_ENABLE_LIBXUL ifdef. It would just be nice not to have it.
This bug is open but targeted for seamonkey2.0a1, which has been released a long time ago. Please set the target milestone to an appropriate value, "---" if it has no specific target.
