[sldev] Linker error building a Debug viewer from 1.17.0.12 sources under VC8

[Able Whitman]

Okay, with Nick's clever hack, I managed to get the Debug configuration to
build successfully. However, I'm hitting an access violation during startup:

"Unhandled exception at 0x02d79179 in debugview.exe: 0xC0000005: Access
violation writing location 0x0c368000."

The culprit is "debugview.exe!LLMozLib::init()  + 0x56 bytes", called from
idle_startup() on line 536 of llstartup.cpp. Curiously, the call to
idle_startup is missing from the debugger call stack, which jumps
immediately from the call to idle() on line 3566 of viewer.cpp to the call
to LLMozLib::init().

I suspect that something about linking the Debug build with the release
version of llmozlib-vc80.lib is causing problems, even though
__invalid_parameter() has been defined. Linking against the supplied debug
version of llmozlib-vc80.lib doesn't work, and results in 3 unresolved
externals:

llpanelweb.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: bool
__thiscall LLMozLib::enableCookies(bool)" ... "public: virtual void
__thiscall LLPanelWeb::refresh(void)"
llpanelweb.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: bool
__thiscall LLMozLib::clearAllCookies(void)" ... referenced in function
"private: static void __cdecl LLPanelWeb::callback_clear_cookies(int,void
*)"
llstartup.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: bool
__thiscall LLMozLib::init(class std::basic_string<char,struct
std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >,class
std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class
std::allocator<char> >,class std::basic_string<char,struct
std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >)" ... referenced in
function "int __cdecl idle_startup(void)"

It looks to me like these functions are related to the new cookie handling
Preferences added in 1.17, and that someone forgot to rebuild the debug
version of llmozlib-vc80.lib before the source went out the door. :)

What are the reasons that the source for llmoz lib isn't included with the
rest of the source?  My next step is to build my own version of it, but is
the version at http://www.ubrowser.com/downloads.php (dated 2006-11-06) the
latest version?
