20 OOo 2.4.1 depends on the Mozilla 1.8 libraries, which it can get
21 from either Fx 2 or xulrunner 1.8.x.
22
23 Fx 3 uses Mozilla 1.9 libs (which are also available in
24 xulrunner 1.9.x).

28 I believe the reason xulrunner is slotted is so that there's always
29 something that can supply dependencies. I'm not sure what the plan is
30 for stabilizing Fx 3.
