While compiling MoreFilesX.o, I get this error:

In file included from
/Users/evan/src/firefox/mozilla/xpcom/MoreFiles/MoreFilesX.c:73:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Headers/Carbon.h:33:37:

/Users/evan/src/firefox/mozilla/xpcom/MoreFiles/MoreFilesX.c: In

make[3]: *** [libs] Error 2
make[2]: *** [tier_2] Error 2
make[1]: *** [default] Error 2
make: *** [build] Error 2

It looks like I have a CarbonSound.h hanging out in
/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/CarbonSound.framework/Versions/A/Headers/CarbonSound.h

I installed everything described http://www.mozilla.org/build/mac.html
and used the standard build options. Any idea why it wouldn't be able
to find the file?

If you have recently upgraded to quicktime 7.0 be sure to check out
software update again because you might be missing the Quicktime 7.0 SDK
(which is related to those files).

Alternatively you can get QT7 SDK here:

This is a problem with the newest Apple API's & the mozilla codebase.
I'm assuming you're using tiger.

There is a workaround fix posted with bug 292530
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=292530>

you will also likely need to set your gcc version to 3.3 via the
gcc_select tool
simply open a terminal window and type:
sudo /usr/sbin/gcc_select 3.3
