Details

Under VS2010, if the compile option '--enable-jemalloc' is included, the configure errors: Building jemalloc requires exactly Visual C++ 2005 SP1 or 2008 SP1 currently Without --enable-jemalloc, the final 'make package' produces a package that can be uncompressed to a folder, but Seamonkey would not run. It gives (on a Win2003 server system) an error: The application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
This would be the comm-central port of bug 563316

You can fix the error message without --enable-jemalloc by setting WIN32_REDIST_DIR="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\redist\x86\Microsoft.VC100.CRT" (or whatever that path is on your machine.) That will cause the build system to package up the CRT DLLs alongside your build.

Thunderbird builders are now building on VS 2010, so I suspect this is no longer an issue.
