It seems to be because many other things depend on Netscape
(or the corresponding HTML renderer or who knows what); from
the port's description:

	Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR) provides a
	platform-neutral API for system level and
	libc like functions. The API is used in the
	Mozilla client, many of Netscape/AOL/iPlanet's
	and other software offerings.

So why port software complicatedly to FreeBSD when all
the OS-specific stuff can be abstracted by another port? :-)
