That seems fairly self-explanatory to me and has been the case for over
two years.  (The relevant test is at the end of the "gecko-post-patch"
target in www/mozilla/Makefile.common).

Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement
an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed behaviour.

FYI, if the ports freeze ever ends I plan to split the bind94 port into 
binaries and libs, and turn off the installation of libs and headers for 
bind9; so this test will need to be adjusted.
