Do a 'make config' in graphic/librsvg2 and disable the mozilla plugin
option.  It's not needed for firefox3 -- at least firefox is still happily
rendering SVG content for me -- and it gets rid of the libxul vs. xulrunner
thing.  Everything else that uses Gecko which I have installed works happily
with WITH_GECKO=libxul in /etc/make.conf

Even so, you missed out the freebsd-gecko at freebsd.org list...
