I'm not =20 talking about application specific libs, but if firefox comes with =20 some libs which belong to the linux_base, it may hurt: If the libs in =20 the firefox port are searched first and if there's a (securiy) bug in =20 them which is fixed in the linux base, firefox would be still =20 vulnerable.
