[ydl-gen] Building Firefox 4.0 under YDL 6.2 PPC

Hi All

I was wondering if anyone has tried building Firefox 4.0 beta or from
the latest source tree?

For me the build fails with an architecture support error for ycbcr
which has been added to Firefox from Chromium code:

"/home/pjwall/src/mozilla-central/gfx/ycbcr/chromium_types.h:76:2:
error: #error Please add support for your architecture in
chromium_types.h"

The new IPC support in Firefox from 3.6.4 onwards is using code from
Chromium giving a similar build failure but the build will complete
successfully if the option "ac_add_options --disable-ipc" is added to
the mozconfig.

Does anyone know of a similar option for disabling ycbcr or indeed
another workaround?

Thanks


Pat
