Just spotted the reason for your Major opcode error btw - you are running the 
installer as su - you won't need the gksudo bit in front of the installer 
command. If you try again, with just ./seamonkey-installer, it should work. 

OK, I have been nosing around the Seamonkey site. Firstly, I notice that the 
1.1.1 version has been superceded by 1.1.2 which fixes some serious security 
problems, so I think I would grab that from Mozilla rather than attempting to 
install the earlier version. 
The download is at -
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/
The Linux GTK2 version is the one you want.
Running through the install on the mozilla website - 
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/releases/seamonkey1.1.2/installation.html#linux_install_installer

and all went fine here.
