A) I wouldn't bother to file a bug trying to get us to change how
we build Mozilla. After all, Chris Blizzard, our package maintainer
has also been the primary maintainer for both the GTK+-1.2 and
GTK+-2.0 widget implementations in Mozilla for the last several
years. :-)
B) It wouldn't hurt to file a bug in Red Hat bugzilla complaining about
the bookmark paste problem.
