 The problem is see (though i am not master of porting) is that the
 mozilla-*.pc files can be provided by several ports: mozilla,
 mozilla-devel, firefox and other mozilla variants.
 
 Putting those files in different directories makes impossible for a port
 to check whether either mozilla* or firefox is installed. The various
 plugin wrapper ports are examples of ports that would want to do that.
 
 But then again, what happens if someone wants both mozilla/firefox to
 coexist?
