Hmm. Very strange.
You definitely need the PWD that has the drive letter to do an objdir
VACPP build.

Do you have your mozilla build as X:\mozilla?

Try creating a directory BUILDS and just moving your entire mozilla
directory into a subdirectory. Maybe the problem is doing a build
directly off of the root directory.

incidentally, this is why objdir builds work so well - in the old days,
everytime the build went wrong, you had to wipe out your source tree and
repull - in this case, just wipe out the obj dir after moving your
directoy and try to build again.
