Hi,

I've tried (for the first time) to install the
source version of firefox
   www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.5.7
with useflags
   alsa bindist dbus gnome java linguas_de linguas_en sqlite 
startup-notification

It builds just fine,
BUT
when I start firefox I get only a tiny (real tiny!)
window. When I enlarge it (dragging a vertex of the window)
it's just empty.

I have no idea what went wrong.
(I have renamed ~/.firefox and ~/.mozilla
  but this doesn't help either)

I've never been sure what the bindist flag does, exactly, but I have it disabled
and firefox works normally.  Enabling xulrunner saves some time and space if you
intend to use other mozilla products like thunderbird, but it shouldn't be 
necessary.

Do you see any messages if you start firefox from a command prompt?
