Re: [pyxpcom] xp_core.h missing from mozilla build | Re: [pyxpcom] [sugar] PyXPCOM viability and OLPC
I'd suggest you download our latest mozilla patches from 
ftp://ftp.activestate.com/Komodo/MozillaPatches
pull out any patch files starting with pyxpcom_ in either the main 
directory or the MOZILLA_1_8 directory, and apply those to your sources. 
    We have a number of patches for fixes, improvements and build 
issues.  I seem to recall having to add -lutil to get pty references for 
linux, and that is in the pyxpcom_build.patch file.

Note that the patches are likely not currently valid against trunk builds.
Regards,
Shane
