New part 1 of "one license to rule them all": make Tb sanitize toolkit/content/license.html for any-browser usage and use it instead of maintaining a forked mail/license.html This works nicely for me on Mac OS X, but I don't have $(OTHER_PLATFORMS) so I haven't tested there (particularly the linefeed conversion stuff on WINNT; it should be unchanged, but I'd appreciate hearing that from someone on that OS that it is indeed still fine). This simply wacks the "about:license" prefix from all of the anchors in the toolkit file and puts this new, sanitized license.html in $(objdir)/mail/ in the objdir case. I've re-arranged the LICENSE_FILES declaration and libs:: rule for the license files to make sure the sanitized license.html is generated, but otherwise the whole mechanics are unchanged. I'm not sure if there's a better way to refer to the location of the newly-sanitized license.html that works in both the srcdir and objdir cases, but mento has used the .. syntax in a couple of similar cases, so my guess is there's not one. Also, it seems that mail/app/Makefile.in has no global clean/clobber rule or GARBAGE list (only per-platform ones), so I've added a global clean/clobber rule to clean up after these new files. I'll switch this to a global GARBAGE if that's preferred.
