Those updates are to fix bugs in the package and not upgrades to the 
actual program (stuck on old 1.7.5 because it has no maintainer).

Resolved in the source branch from which mozilla-1.7.x is not built 
from.  Even the latest official mozilla suite (1.7.13) doesn't (and 
won't) support Intel (http://wiki.mozilla.org/Mac:Intel).

Does openvrml need mozilla or does it need gecko?  firefox1.5 works fine 
on intel and provides the gecko libraries.  Someone has Seamonkey (the 
successor for the mozilla suite) in their experimental tree, but I can't 
find it now.  If you really need the whole suite for openvrml, then you 
should work with them to get seamonkey into the official trees.
