well, the install process has always been easy (if a little cryptic :)
gmake NSDISTMODE=copy DIST=/usr/local/nspr export libs install
it is definitely a homebrewed system, but it can work with autoconf (the
mozilla build marries them successfully.) the toplevel japhar Makefile.am
would have to contain some smarts, but not too much, i don't think.
