SO...
Following these docs...
https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Configuring_Build_Options
https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Simple_Firefox_build
... i have rebuild Firefox with a .mozconfig file like this :
[...]
ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
ac_add_options --enable-debug
ac_add_options --enable-negotiateauth
ac_add_options --disable-tests
[...]
... and test again with the new binary of Firefox (Help > About:
"Minefield")
As you can see, "negotiateauth" should have been enabled.
BUT : nothing else better !
Damned !
:-(
