Alternatively, use ports-mgmt/poudriere to build firefox package in a
clean environment.

Also, make sure you've run make delete-old in case you've updated to
9.0R from a previous release. Stale headers can often cause some hard to
track breakages, crashes, runtime issues.

It's harmless and no different for previous versions. firefox uses
flashplugin via nspluginwrapper. Make sure you did

  $ nspluginwrapper -v -a -i

if you've updated www/linux-f10-flashplugin11 or www/nspluginwrapper.
