OK, first part seems to work.  mozilla-1.4.1 compiles without
incident on sparc (sparc64 at any rate; I have not checked for
sparc32 and probably won't since I have no use for it there, although
I might start up the build just to see if it will).  With minimal
testing, from a user point of view it is indistinguishable from
1.4-r3 (a good thing).  I'll 'quickpkg' it up and start off a build
of 1.5-r1 for you.

Ferris
