Firefox 47.0 hangs when accessing cnn.com

I'm of the opinion that the Firefox port was updated to 47 very 
prematurely. Even though the SVN commit note says it was a release 
candidate, I don't usually look at commit notes when I've updated my 
ports tree and ran into some weird issues with 47 that made me downgrade 
back to 46.0.1. 47's official release isn't until tomorrow.

Thanks,
