Unless, you mean you are going to update all packages from what we have in  
ports tree right now. Then, I guess backout all firefox stuff (ie:  
mozilla/Makefile.common, bsd.gecko.mk, etc) and update www/firefox to  
1.5.0.8 in your tinderbox.

I personal rather to avoid poke around in ports tree for backout or  
whatever. It's messy to do it.
