If you build the firefox package from source yourself, you are free to
enable the "official-mozilla-branding" pkgsrc option to get the official
Firefox branding (name, logo, startup page).  However the binaries are
no longer redistributable then, that's why it's disabled by default.

See http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/ for more information.

To be able to distribute official ("unaltered") binaries, Mozilla must
approve all of our patches, and they haven't been responsive for years.
