I don't have my build anymore from 2005. They removed the Qt stuff in firefox3 trunk. I know for a fact that it used to be there in the offical firefox source in either 1.0 or 1.5 or 2.0. You might want to ask Michael Hendy from moznet when exactly they removed the Qt3 code. Maybe he also still has a Qt3 build somewhere. But it definitely was there since I did get a build in Feb 2005 by using --enable-default-toolkit=qt but it didn't run so well. The current problem with firefox is that Gtk2 is just an abstraction. The ui is designed in xul and java script. Firefox would run a lot quicker if it were a native Gtk2 application.
