Ahem.  Mozilla doesn't even build from source.  Somebody seems to have
hardcoded x86 into there:

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/jgoerzen/t/moz/mozilla-19981008/nsprpub'
cd config; make export
make[2]: Entering directory 
`/home/jgoerzen/t/moz/mozilla-19981008/nsprpub/config'
gcc -o Linux2.0.36_x86_OPT.OBJ/now.o -c -O0 now.c
now.c:27: #error "Architecture not supported"
now.c:53: #error "Architecture not supported"
make[2]: *** [Linux2.0.36_x86_OPT.OBJ/now.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory 
`/home/jgoerzen/t/moz/mozilla-19981008/nsprpub/config'
make[1]: *** [export] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jgoerzen/t/moz/mozilla-19981008/nsprpub'
make: *** [build-stamp] Error 2

When I build it from the original tar.gz, not using the Debian package, it
still coredumps on startup on my Alpha.
