Ugh, typo: I mean "server-core" in the above, not "server-code"...

Right, the whole point of server-full is to package up all the different
parts into a single server so that it's easy to install and run.
We don't run server-full in production at mozilla. We run each of reg,
storage, etc as a separate service. This is not included in the
self-hosting documentation because almost no-one needs it - AFAICT you
would be the first :-)
You can checkout each of the servers individually:
http://hg.mozilla.org/services/server-reg
http://hg.mozilla.org/services/server-storage
http://hg.mozilla.org/services/server-key-exchange
Each should `make build` in much the same way as the server-full
package, and should have a .ini configuration file to run it as a
standalone component.
