MOZ_FIX_LINK_PATHS is no use on Solaris. Having -R ${LIBXUL_DIST}/bin will cause the final binary have a runpath as "../../dist/bin". Then it tries to find library from ../../dist/bin, it's not good for end user.

Comment on attachment 339038 [details] [diff] [review] patch So the question is, what are you going to use in its place? There are components that link against -lxpcom but explicitly don't link against the dependencies of -lxpcom (in particular -lxul or the NSS libs)... how will these be found?
We already have $ORIGIN:$ORIGIN/.. in runpath. So libraries in /usr/lib/firefox or first level subdirectory under it are fine.
Comment on attachment 339038 [details] [diff] [review] patch If $ORIGIN is honored at link-time in addition to runtime, that makes sense.
