As of this writing, they won't compile.

The NORMANDY_BRANCH (don't ask about the branch name, it's a long story) in
the Mozilla tree is an intergration branch for the mail and news code.  Some
of the source is  landing there now (as visible from Bonsai).  More source
will be arriving in a few days.

After all the sources are in, we'll attempt to hook up mail and news to
Mozilla. Once that works, the contents of NORMANDY_BRANCH will be landed onto
the trunk.

For those people who want to take an early look at mail and news, do a

cvs co -r NORMANDY_BRANCH MozillaSource from the public CVS server.

Again...don't expect this code to compile. This is only if you enjoy reading
source code.
