I trying to build Firefox using the profiledbuild option with make.

1) Initial build is successful
2) Script runs and loads browser
3) Assertion is raised ( build enable-debug ) when entering a URL or
closing browser.
4) Second build begins but fails with errors.

I have posted my complete output here http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/imgs/Sept22build-.zip.
I also talk about it here ( http://dee132.blogspot.com/2008/09/pgo-build-problems.html
) at my blog.

Here is the assertion when the browser closes.
###!!! ASSERTION: Uh, IsInModalState() called w/o a reachable top
window?: 'Error', file e:/mozilla/trunk/dom/src/base/
nsGlobalWindow.cpp, line 5628

Here are the errors when the last compile fails.

processing e:/mozilla/trunk/netwerk/locales/jar.mn
make[6]: *** [mozlcms.dll] Error 232
make[6]: *** Deleting file `mozlcms.dll'
make[5]: *** [libs] Error 2
make[4]: *** [libs_tier_external] Error 2
make[3]: *** [tier_external] Error 2
make[2]: *** [default] Error 2
make[1]: *** [build] Error 2
make: *** [profiledbuild] Error 2

So I figured out my problem with the help of some mozilla guys on the
irc://moznet.org/developers

I was using Visual Studio 2008 and they knew it worked with Visual
Studio 2005 so I tried that and no problems.
