Currently the updater architecture doesn't build on BeOS. This bug will provide patches to get it to build, and eventually add some tweaks needed to get it working.
Attached patch Build fixes (deleted) — Splinter Review
Here are the proposed build fixes. One fix is from the developer weblog, the other fixes are my own.
execve doesn't behave that well on BeOS. Like I wrote here: http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/toolkit/xre/nsAppRunner.cpp#127
As I always seem to search for the old BeOS-patch, to see what it did, I'm adding a link to bug 292021 here. It's the Updater-bug so it might be good to read thru anyway.

neilx, is this ready for testing? or is there anything else I can do to help you with this?
I need help with the scripts that generate the updates. There is a construction in them that our BeOS bash doesn't like. That needs to be solved first.
Per suggestion of Doug Shelton, let this bug show up on both the 2.0 and the 3.0 list
