This won't work with the mozilla packages, as they work a little differently.
As Yorick noted, their do-install target invoke the moz-install script, which
uses the PLIST as input. :-)  I have a script here (from taca) to generate
the PLIST file, it must be run from within ${WRKDIR}/mozilla/dist.  The
output needs to be cleaned up a bit (actually, the script needs to be cleaned
up), but it contains all the correct tags for use with moz-install.

Let me know if it works for you, or if I can help.
