Nautilus wants to use mozilla-embedded period. There is a galeon Makefile
option for FULL_MOZILLA, but not in nautilus. Something should be added
to Nautilus' Makefile like this so that users can build one true Mozilla,
once:

pre-patch:
As another consideration, since Mozilla embedded seems to cause problems
with Galeon, why not nuke it altogether, and force people to use
FULL_MOZILLA. Then, with Jeremy's mozilla-lite port, this becomes a much
less daunting thing. Just a thought.
