I'm on ia64, and www/firefox doesn't build.
www/firefox36 is about the only full featured
browser that does build on ia64.

I've several open bug reports with mozilla:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=638056
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647830
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683879
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=729447

I understand it's a pain to keep obsolete
software in ports, and I'm trying to find
a newer alternative. However, with the current
pace of version numbers in mozilla project, FF12
might be coming out tomorrow, and I'm not ready
to migrate from 3.6 yet.

Thanks
