... Sorry to be a bit late with that info: but mozilla-1.0 is ready
since some days ... source i took IIRC:
mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu-1.0.tar.gz

(as I said some days ago: no building, compiling etc. is needed:
simply unpacking and using it still should be possible; and the
bookmarks, preferences files etc. from the old version should be
stored in ".mozilla" folder, so there should be no need for extra work
to save the preferences user files from the previous version ... :)

It's not necessary to put the whole stuff into your /mozilla/plugins
directory:  I simply build some links in this directory directed to
the necessary files:

I cd'ed to  the /mozilla/plugins folder (*not* the .mozilla folder
with the dot at the start ... :) and did (just 1 example), if I read
my bash_history correctly :) ...:

ln -s /usr/lib/netscape/plugins/ShockwaveFlash.class

This is what I have (excerpt)
$ ls -l mozilla1.0/mozilla/plugins/
total 20
lrwxrwxrwx    1 yyyyy      yyyyy            46 Jun  9 16:47
ShockwaveFlash.class -> /usr/lib/netscape/plugins/ShockwaveFlash.class
[rest deleted ]

Sorry for being so verbose ...

Hoping it helps.

Regards
Wolfgang
