According to upstreams homepage [1],
the current tagged v1.99.09 does support xulrunner 11.0.
There is no such thing as "separate" Xulrunner 11.0.
There is Firefox 11.0 but upstream stopped splitting it from Firefox and
our Firefox package doesn't ship with pkg-config files for it.
So chmsee upstream very much failed... He should switch to something
else, like webkit-gtk or gtkhtml.

The problem is that looks like other major distributions are still
providing xulrunner (from firefox):
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=xulrunner.git;a=tree
http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/src-oss/suse/src/xulrunner-12.0-1.1.src.rpm
http://packages.debian.org/sid/xulrunner-10.0
The answer I got from Gentoo's Mozilla Team when I proposed bumping it
to latest from the Firefox tarball was that "use npapi-sdk or
spidermonkey instead".
Some which have needed more than just npapi-sdk or spidermonkey have
happily migrated to gtkhtml, or webkit-gtk.
So I don't think it really makes sense to package and **maintain**
something upstream doesn't support, therefore I'm agreeing with the
Gentoo's Mozilla Team decision on this.
So no xulrunner anymore, even if that means losing 'chmsee' and 'kiwix'.
