I suspect this is because on both NetBSD and Linux, there is a script
firefox that sets environment variables and runs firefox-bin. With
the linux binary package, this is simply run under emulation so is
structurally unchanged. From /usr/pkg/bin/firefox (native):
#!/bin/sh
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/pkg/lib/firefox
export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME
exec /usr/pkg/lib/firefox/firefox-bin "$@"
So I'd say this is a natural consequence of emulation; if we had
native acrobat and Linux then they'd show up the same.
Perhaps it would be cool if ps had a way to indicate emulation status,
but otherwise I don't see anything wrong.
