Yeah, that's correct.

Yes, I agree with you about that I doubt it's firefox that causes this
issue. I think it's more like spidermonkey. It's both firefox3 and
spidermonkey bug. The spidermonkey shouldn't be put its header files in
/usr/local/include since there is many same headers in firefox2, firefox3,
mozilla, more gecko craps. As for the firefox3, it picks up by
-I/usr/local/include. It needs to reorder the -I. I will have to take a
look in source and get back to you guys. Thanks for report!
Cheers,
