I have some practical experience coding in the FireFox code base— a few years 
ago Riccardo and I collaborated for a few weeks over the Christmas holidays to 
fix endian issues in TenFourFox (was PPC only then) and make that available to 
Intel systems. I still use that daily.

But as detailed in the thread last November, I ran into trouble getting a build 
system working in debian PPC for the current Firefox code base. I asked for 
some help, but nothing was suggested. So that is still in a folder on my dual 
G5.

Adrian apparently does have a working build system for that code base, and 
perhaps we might get something going.
