Discussed over IRC. The main problem is that toolkit/library/backend.mk ends up with SHARED_LIBRARY_LIBS += $(DEPTH)/mailnews ... which doesn't exist. Patch in hand, just making sure it compiles locally before uploading.

This builds comm-central for me. Mozilla-central passes configure, so I assume it works there too.
