What is the reason for > 'mozilla-vendor' to be the name of a port that contains the > previous or an old version of mozilla? mozilla-vendor has a purpose. Mozilla 1.0 and now 1.4 are the vendor branches. That is, they are the branches that browsers such as Netscape are spun from. The name vendor means that this browser can be used by other vendors to create Mozilla-based products. They can be assured of utmost stability at the cost of new features.
