Portupgrade Ate My Firefox

Mon Aug 6 22:47:05 UTC 2007

Not sure if this is a bug in the Firefox port or in portupgrade,
but portupgrade ate my Firefox install. When the build failed,
it still tried to install, and didn't notice that the install
failed either. That both failed makes me wonder if the port was
not actually returning an error.
