 Obviously www/firefox or rather www/mozilla/Makefile.common is missing a 
 correct dependency check on security/nss. 
 LIB_DEPENDS += nss3:${PORTSDIR}/security/nss is not enough, minor version must 
 be checked also.
 
 Sitenote: security/nss failed the 'make test'. I've reported this to 
           gnome at freebsd.org
           I deinstalled & reinstalled it though and firefox build completely
           through
 
 If I'd know how to check the minor version within dependency checks then I'd
 have supplied a patch.
