Has anyone had success building FireFox for a PowerPC

I've tried to build a number of different FireFox packages,
none with success.  So far I've tried 2.0.0.3, 3.5.2&  3.6.2

Any pointers?

Query: is there an easy way to build a particular package version?
What I've done is just add a line like this to my local.conf:
  PREFERRED_VERSION_firefox="3.5.2"


what errors do you get.

It depends on the version.  For 3.6.2 (latest), I get this:

Note: to even get this far, I had to apply the attached patch
as the default setup falls apart with regard to va_list processing.
