Yay!

My gnome-based desktop has 46 lines of +REQUIRED_BY in
firefox-2.0.0.20_9,1, which is a real pain at the moment,
because port-audit won't allow it to be built, thanks to the
known vulnerabilities.  That makes upgrades with portmaster a
chore.

Is there an existing fix that everyone but me is using so that
the following *don't* depend on firefox-2 on their system?
(This is my afore-mentioned +REQUIRD_BY file contents:)
