My problem is the 'normally' - I am just starting to get in - 
so thanks a lot for your feedback.

Allow me this problem first, before I come back to your answer:

As usually I created a project specific directory in my projects
tree:

    /usr3/marc/projects/mozilla/

This is supposed to keep mozilla related stuff, among it the 
source tree. So I end up with

    /usr3/marc/projects/mozilla/mozilla/README/mozilla/README.build
                                ^
                                |
                               Mozilla top dir

From my attempts with client.mk I somehow got the impression that the 
client.mk cant grok this, and rather would see

    /usr3/marc/projects/dir-not-named-mozilla/mozilla/..

Before I try to gather evidence - the question to you:
How do you organize your Mozilla sources?

I took the above README.build and it said

    For mozilla-the-client build instructions, please read:
    http://www.mozilla.org/build

This leads me to

   http://www.mozilla.org/build/unix.html

where I get information that does not work for me.


              Build the Lizard

                1.cvs co -f mozilla/client.mk 
                2.cd mozilla 
                3.gmake -f client.mk 

               To rebuild without pulling the tree, 

                  gmake -f client.mk build 

               To pull the tree, 

                  gmake -f client.mk checkout 

and this one:

               After the build 

                  cd dist/bin 
                  ./mozilla-apprunner.sh 
                  ./mozilla-viewer.sh

I'll have a look at these.
