My mozilla-central build on Fedora 14 fails with:

make[4]: *** No rule to make target '-lxpcom', needed by 'test_IHistory'. Stop.
"libxpcom.so" is not in dist/bin at that point, which according to bsmedberg is the problem. Build order issue?

It's in TOOL_DIRS (https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/annotate/55f344578932/toolkit/components/places/tests/Makefile.in#l80) so it should be built after toolkit.  Color me confused.
Same fix as for bug 642821. This was fixed for me by installing the package "libstdc++-static", which was not mentioned in the build docs as a requirement. I added it to the docs.

Strange that we get to this point with that problem though.
