In my previous posting I vented some frustration rather than ask you the
nature of the actual issue you're encountering. That's not clear to me
from your description here; so what is it? That is, what in OpenVRML's
build system is making it impossible (or unreasonably difficult) for you
to get things working with Firefox or Seamonkey?
