Commit in the RELENG_6_2_0 of ports tree, then rebuild all ports depend on  
firefox. Will that work?

If it is not possible to commit in the RELENG_6_2_0, then do the checkout  
RELENG_6_2_0 and tweak in www/firefox before start to rebuild all ports  
depend on firefox. I know that will working with MarcusCom Tinderbox, but  
I don't know what about with your tinderbox.
