If all else fails, you can install Mozilla from the binary package on
mozilla.org. It can install itself under any arbitrary path.

The problem with this approach is that an upgrade deletes the entire
directory under which it was installed. Thus, all the plug-ins that were
installed there would be lost.

Writing a BitKeeper replacement is probably easier at this point than getting
its license changed.
