Hi,

	Anyone feeling adventurous?  I could use some help testing the patches 
to add powerpc native atomic instruction support to forefox. The 
bugzilla bug is 296878. The version that I applied them against is 
2.0.0.15pre. The cvs tag I used is MOZILLA_1_8_BRANCH. The mozconfig I 
used is:

#mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=suite
#ac_add_options --enable-application=suite
. $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig
mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/obj- at CONFIG_GUESS@
ac_add_options --disable-tests
#ac_add_options --disable-optimize
#ac_add_options --enable-debug
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --enable-optimize="-O2 -mcpu=powerpc -ffast-math 
-fomit-frame-poi
nter"
#ac_add_options --disable-strip
ac_add_options --prefix=/opt/firefox2.0
ac_add_options --with-system-jpeg
ac_add_options --with-system-zlib
ac_add_options --with-system-png
ac_add_options --enable-crypto
ac_add_options --enable-xpctools
#ac_add_options --enable-perf-metrics
ac_add_options --enable-default_toolkit=gtk2

	I have tested this on a G5 running YDL 6 and a GiGE and PowerMac8600 
both running YDL 4.0.

	To verify that it worked, run:

	objdump -d libmozjs.so|grep "lwarx\|stwcx."

and

	objdump -d libnspr4....so|grep "lwarx\|stwcx."

I'd be especially interested in what a PS3 does?
