Bug 782211 has now landed, so we need to re-land this that was originally landed and then backed out.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #792793 +++

Bug 777409 removed growl support, and the comm-central tree is currently busted:
mailnews/base/src/nsMessengerOSXIntegration.mm:40:10: fatal error: 'nsINotificationsList.h' file not found
make[8]: *** [nsMessengerOSXIntegration.o] Error 1

The attached patch removes Growl specific code from mailnews, but keeps the call to nsIAlertsService, as that will use the new notification center on 10.8.
Depends on: 777409
Depends on: 792793
No longer depends on: 777409
Obviously forgot to close this bug.

I'd re-landed the patch with a couple of extra changes for packaging files:

Wow. What a monumental step backwards for those of us who are using Growl 1.2.2 on Snow Leopard. Yesterday, SeaMonkey 2.17.1 offered up notifications in line with every other application. As of 2.19, notifications are in a "Hey, LOOK AT ME" balloon".

Lovely. Not. Surely, there could have been another way.
