I've noticed :-)
But even this port does not mention in its pre-everything message
setting WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla, presumably because it is considered
redundant. Nevertheless, since there are long-time users out there who
do this, eclipse must accomodate.

I see that this port does not have a case where one would want
WITHOUT_MOZILLA functionality. I think your patch may be enough for
eclipse. If you could verify it works for your case, I'd say send-pr it.
