Not sure what you mean. Try

$ mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/firefox/browser/defaults/preferences
$ echo 'pref("extensions.autoDisableScopes", 11);'
>/usr/local/lib/firefox/browser/defaults/preferences/xpi-ports.js

I don't care about xpi-* ports, plugins, etc. Mabye there're other gecko@ peers
who do.

Do you mean intl.locale.matchOS vs. general.useragent.locale? Firefox supports
more locales than FreeBSD despite both using CLDR.

I guess, someone who uses the port needs to provide wording for pkg-message.
