Hello!
For whatever reasons, both firefox (28) and firefox-esr (24) compiled here using
GCC 4.9 kept crashing with SIGBUS -- possibly some sort of misunderstanding
between different binaries (firefox and dependencies) compiled with different
compilers. My system is a 9.2-STABLE/i386.
Unfortunately, I could not figure out, how to tell the port to use clang --
until I gave up and simply added the three lines at the bottom of
www/firefox/Makefile

The clang-built browser seems to work just fine -- it ought to be possible to
use it without resorting to the hacks, however. Yours,
