- Update firefox and thunderbird to 16.0

- Update all -i18n ports respectively

smb:// issues (Gvfs/GIO or GNOMEVFS2 option):
Network group, machine, and share browsing does not work correctly.
sftp:// (Gvfs/GIO or GNOMEVFS2 option):
Only sftp access using public key authentication works. To easily
setup public key authentication to "remote_host":
ssh-keygen -t dsa
cat ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub | ssh remote_host "cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys"
The SSH server on remote_host must allow pub key authentication.

Firefox and HTML5
Certain functions used to display HTML5 elements need the sem module
on 7.x and 8.x releases.
If your Firefox crashes with the following message while viewing a
HTML5 page:
"Bad system call (core dumped)"
you need to load the sem module (kldload sem).
To load sem on every boot put the following into your
/boot/loader.conf:
sem_load="YES"
