yes - and getting it to work is not fun ...
thats if its possible ... otherwise getting it to work is just impossible 
...

I have only tried for a few hours on a couple of occasions... but it keeps 
deciding to try and use the visual c++ cl.exe compiler... even after i 
rename it ... remove it from my path... - and this is using the 'unix' 
client.mk - not the windows client.mak - very strange... - maybe I will make 
more progress this weekend ... if I feel like having another go so soon 
after the last failure...

thats after I recompiled cygwin to not have ( ) in its uname -r (probably 
better ways to do this - but it was simple for me)
and having installed gtk+ glib ... libIDL ... hmmm the rest of the things 
you need ...

generally I think mozilla is pushing things abit far for right now ... but I 
shall try every few weeks or so ... until i manage to get it to work I 
guess...
