   It's not necessarily gentoo crews fault, the seamonkey team has been badly   
   influenced by gnome2 developers and more and more gnome2 dependency seems to   
   be forced into the whole. I used to build a gtk version (not gtk2) with anti   
   alias, was a lot more smother and didn't look so distorted in a KDE   
   environment, but sadly dependencies has now made it impossible and I have to   
   go with uglyfied seamonkey :(
