Yeah, I gave up after 3-4 hours of build failures. At least what I did fix seems to have been integrated upstream, but firefox is more of a fight than I want to take regularly. If you really want a newer version, patches are welcome...

Also, I'm not interested in building the Cocoa version. Only the X11 version is interesting to me. If you want to build the Cocoa version, you'll need to provide/maintain your own port.
