Seamonkey doesn't even work on at least one architecture. Please do
not mask mozilla until this is fixed. If the security issues are a
problem and you do not want to do the backporting work, then please
make them available so that other architectures that cannot use
Seamonkey at this time can attempt to do something with them.
Also as you knew Seamonkey was broken on at least one architecture
before you did this, why didn't you attempt to let us know when
exactly you were doing this so we could have some working alternative in
place?
