It does not!

... on all of my boxes (amd64), it does not ... even on those machines
where Firefox3 is running, these libs are empty. But I realized that those
boxes are capable running firefox3 after the 'great
Xorg-update-catastrophy' have still installed firefox2 ... I will check
tomorrow at the lab if
this do have an influence of the proper work abilities of firefox3 when
removing the old firefox2.

When setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH manually, adding /usr/lib/firefox3/, it
doesn't change the bad situation on the failing CURRENT amd64 box.
