Let gnome@ know if you run into any problems. This naming scheme is inconsistent with all other ports naming schemes. Mozilla 1.1 is an *official* release, *not* a development release. If you feel that it is necessary to support multiple versions of Mozilla, then name them after their version numbers. There is no development version of Mozilla, unless you intend to start supporting beta releases. Please make the port mozilla1.1 or some such, and make the *official* version of mozilla in the ports tree the 1.1 version, as the 1.0 version is fatally flawed for a number of reasons.
