OK, I came across the following instructions for pulling via CVS:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous <at> cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot login
# type the password /anonymous/
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous <at> cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co mozilla/client.mk
cd mozilla
make -f client.mk checkout MOZ_CO_PROJECT=browser

The question as to whether or not a can pull a "more stable" release 
that still supports pyxpcom/nsdom still stands though.

Man, I wish compiles weren't (for us nonexpert people) such a chore...no 
matter what I try to 'make', there always seems to be some sort of 
problem  

Thanks,
