Nope, all the terms don't match: %s/libxul.so doesn't, and it's my
fault (a change in xulrunner 1.9.1.6-1).

I'll add a check in xulrunner build to make sure dh_xulrunner still
works with new versions.

Thanks for spotting the problem.

PS: Note that before using dh_xulrunner, xiphos didn't have a xulrunner
dependency, iirc, and therefore, wasn't working properly either ;)
