>Description:
	Current www/mozilla port is in fact uses internal nspr library. An attempt
	to force usage of outer library from devel/nspr port results mozilla
	failure at startup some symbols not found):

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /local/X11R6/lib/mozilla/components/libnecko.so: Undefined symbol "PR_GetAddrInfoByName"
>How-To-Repeat:
	Try the following:

	# cd /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla
	# mv libnspr4.so libnspr4.so.b
	# mv libplc4.so libplc4.so.b
	# mv libplds4.so libplds4.so.b
	# mozilla

	You'll notice the error mentioned above.
>Fix:

	Currently devel/nspr port is just not used by www/mozilla port. If
	no other package is willing to use nspr, the dependency (and maybe
	devel/nspr port itself) can be safely removed. Otherwise,
	devel/nspr port needs to be updated accordingly, and www/mozilla
	port should be patched for using outer devel/nspr port.
