there was a thread about this on the mozilla.org groups; XIE apparently
*is* deprecated by XFree86.

From what I read, Chris Blizzard was deprecating XIE support in the
Mozilla tree as well (at least on Linux), as it's inefficient compared to
the GTK/GDK stuff.

I think updating mozilla might be the way to go.
