The problem is with the mozilla 1.7.5 source which is fixed in mozilla 1.8.

Link shows the patch id=39575 which when applied fixes the broken build.

cheers, make world open.

From BarCamp Bangalore

Sharing space with folks here at barcamp bangalore 2.0 at thoughtworks india and planning for the sessions ahead. Having more scoop of enthusiasm or may be i did not want to miss this golden opportunity , i came a lot early and became the first one to put up my name here to register.
But.. uhhhh i am not the only one who is so excited about the event. I see a lot of folks here already as early as 8.30 am in the morning.
Will come back and put up more interesting stuff here....
