The Mozilla code was forked a couple of years ago. It used to be possible to build Firefox, Thunderbird or the Mozilla suite from the same tarball but that hasn't been true for a couple of years. So yes, the Wiki page is right, Thunderbird and Seamonkey use a version of Xulrunner. If you find a way to build a functional Seamonkey or Thunderbird against Xulrunner from Firefox that would be great as they'd be able to share code. I don't believe it's possible.
