Well... the good news is, firefox is now built...
The bad news is, I'm not 100% how the problem was solved.

I rebuilt the port and it ran flawlessly this time.  I'm not sure why
this happened though.  I did nothing different than the previous times
I had tried to build it after upgrading to 5.3.

Thanks for the help on trying to solve the problem.  Sorry for not
being completely thorough on the commands you sent me - but I
appreciate the patience involved.  Yourself, and others, are one of
the many reasons why I enjoy FreeBSD.  I use it for basic development
things, never really get fancy with it - I haven't had any major
problems using the OS (I'd say for about a little over a year), this
is the first problem of any sort of signifigance that I have run
across.

Anyway, thanks again for the help!
