OK, it looks like the build process for Seamonkey hasn't changed all
that much.

I'm starting the seamonkey-2.0b2 tarball, and the error I get is:

gmake[5]: Entering directory `/opt/src/appl/X/seamonkey2/seamonkey-2.0b2/comm-central/mozilla/build' /opt/src/appl/X/seamonkey2/seamonkey-2.0b2/comm-central/mozilla/config/nsinstall -R ../build/automationutils.py . /opt/src/appl/X/seamonkey2/seamonkey-2.0b2/comm-central/mozilla/config/nsinstall: cannot access ../build/automationutils.py: No such file or directory gmake[5]: *** [/opt/src/appl/X/seamonkey2/seamonkey-2.0b2/comm-central/mozilla/build/automationutils.py] Error 1

I'm not a SM build expert, but sometimes, when a file appears to not be
there, what's really wrong is the processor used for that file is not
found. In this case, it's a Python file, so do you have Python installed?

You can check that specific file to see if it has a command processor
directive at the top, like:

  #!/usr/local/python/python

or whatever. Make sure the path mentioned in the file is valid on
your system.

The aforementioned automation.py really doesn't exist.  There is a
automation.py.in in that directory -- my guess is that file is used
to build the actual automationutils.py file.

On Solaris 10, python is in /usr/bin/python.  The configure appears
to be finding it OK.
