I couldn't see why either path might fail, and I can't see what exit 
code 255 might mean.

Since the version number's changing, stuff in there gets orphaned. I have:

06:23 [summer@Numbat ~]$ ls -dl /usr/lib/mozilla-*
drwxr-xr-x 11 root 4096 Jun 18 19:37 /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8
06:27 [summer@Numbat ~]$ rpm -q seamonkey
seamonkey-1.0.8-0.2.el4
seamonkey-1.1.2-1
06:27 [summer@Numbat ~]$

and on a CentOS4 box where I've been thoroughly conventional:
06:29 [summer@sysadmin ~]$ ls -dl /usr/lib/mozilla-*
drwxr-xr-x   2 4096 Sep 16  2006 /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.3
drwxr-xr-x   3 4096 Dec  3  2006 /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.5
drwxr-xr-x   3 4096 Jan 18 12:50 /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.6
drwxr-xr-x  11 4096 Jun 21 15:31 /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.7
06:29 [summer@sysadmin ~]$ rpm -q seamonkey
seamonkey-1.0.7-0.1.el4.centos4
06:30 [summer@sysadmin ~]$
