You don't want to. The only solution is to enable the build of the internal
mozilla and/or use the prebuilt mozilla zips. Which both have the obvious
drawback that you use a old or completely ancient, heavily patched version of
mozilla and end up with the old versions libraries in your OOo installation.

Unless this is patched to work with "normal" mozilla/seamonkey/... there's
no chance to do this unless you want to expose your users to these issues
(and yes, upstream does that, and they know about the problem)

Rene
