Gentoo users do this all the time - we compile all our software!

Some information is here: http://www.mozilla.org/build/faq.html
I have never done it (except for emerge mozilla on Gentoo system), but it seems that it isn't very hard.

Part of the process asks me to set something in the "path".
It has been a long time since I was asked to do that. It is a throw-back to the ol' DOS days and the ol' autoexec.bat

How do I do this with Windows XP?
