- Add Java 5 plugins support. [1]
- Use system's libm (/usr/src/lib/msun), nss, nspr and etc. Also, do
not extract those. Better explain, use external dependencies. [1]
- Teach firefox-config and *.pc files for nspr that will making other
third apps to buildable like epiphany, vlc-devel's mozilla plugins
and etc. Have been tested with full GNOME 2.11.x build too.

patch-jsosdep:
Fix the FreeBSD define
patch-oji-threads:
64-bit wide pthread_t
patch-xptcinvoke_x86_64_linux:

varibles that are arleady exist and lesser complicate.
- Change all hardcore of 'firefox' to PORTNAME.
- Change a manual loop for patch all.js to find(1), so we can sleep
on it.

Firefox is installed similar to Mozilla in that its main installation
directory no longer has a Firefox version number in its name. This will
help maintainers of ports that depend on Firefox stay in sync more
easily.

This is being done instead of the update to 1.0 PR 1 since we're in a ports

from Thierry Thomas <thierry@pompo.net>. However...
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After installing Firefox, you must su - to root, and run ``firefox'' before
running it as any other user. If you do not su - to root, you may lose some
of your user settings. If you try to run Firefox as a normal user without
first running it as root, the browser will not show up. This is a known issue
with Firefox, and they hope to address it in a future release.

do with esound being installed, but not being used (e.g. when not running
under the GNOME Desktop). What happens now is sound support is disabled by
default. If you wish to enable Type Ahead Find sound support, edit your
prefs.js file, and add:
user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.enablesound", true);
* Make portlint happy by not including anything after bsd.port.post.mk
* Clean up the pkg-message a bit to reflect reality with respect to Perl
Thanks to casaveli on BSDForums for finding it was esound causing the lock up
as well as testing the patch mentioned above.
I've taken a chance and split the sparc64 and alpha mega-diffs up because
sparc64 patched the result of alpha's patches, and amd64 needed to do the
same again - but it was sorted lexically before alpha/sparc64. I've
grouped the xptcall patches together since they are standalone and split
up and merged the other infrastructure jumbo-patches.
I also attempted to sync up the nspr vs firebird diffs for sparc64 and
alpha because they disagreed. HOWEVER... While this port 'depends'
on the nspr port, it doesn't actually *use* it. It should probably
be removed from the LIB_DEPENDS list.
Note that the amd64 xptcall code came from SuSE via the mozilla bugzilla
database.

but it went from being based on Mozilla 1.4b to 1.5a.
Note, the master site may be temporary. The source tarball at
${MASTER_SITE_MOZILLA} was missing some key bits that prevented compilation.
