That's because a number of factors are required to trigger this "bug":
1. The bug does not affect clobber builds, because
dist/public/nss/pkixt.h is deleted by definition
2. The bug does not affect systems that support symlinks, because
dist/public/nss/pkixt.h is simply a reference to the real pkixt.h,
and so never goes out of date, and therefore it doesn't matter
which pkixt.h the compiler uses.
However with Windows depend builds, such as mine or tpol (see my other
post regarding tpol), dist/public/nss/pkixt.h is stale, and causes the
compilation errors.
What does the NSS build system do to prevent stale headers from
polluting dist/public/nss?
