Wasn't Xft support deprecated? I seem to remember hearing that somewhere. Maybe not.

Hey all,

For those of you who'd like to see firefox 1.0 in test, please help
test this and make sure I'm not breaking any boxes. :)

The main changes with the new firefox are:
* Installs to it's own "firefox" directory; no more trampling over
mozilla
# This means that mozilla and firefox can now coexist
* Updated to 1.0 :)
* Uses Xft instead of freetype2 (had problems with the latter)
* Cleaner variable usage in the spell

Problems with this release:
* Spells that install plug-ins need to be updated to check for
/usr/lib/firefox as well as /usr/lib/mozilla.

Enjoy! And let us know how it goes.
