The browser-prefs.js file indeed isn't part of the tarball, but gets
anyway installed on my system:

/usr/local/lib/linux-netscape-navigator/defaults/pref/browser-prefs.js
/usr/local/lib/linux-netscape-navigator/defaults/pref/browser-prefs.js
was installed by package linux-netscape-navigator-9.0.0.3

The port uses the infrastructure provided by
/usr/ports/www/linux-seamonkey/Makefile.common, as all other
"linux-gecko" ports do. I think the cause is to be searched inside that
file.

I'll investigate.

Follow-up to ports@ set. Maybe someone there has a good hint ;-)
