$ ls -d /usr/lib/firefox-*
/usr/lib/firefox-0.10.1  /usr/lib/firefox-1.0.1
/usr/lib/firefox-1.0     /usr/lib/firefox-1.0.2

All installed using RPMs.

$ du -ks /usr/lib/firefox-*
452     /usr/lib/firefox-0.10.1
468     /usr/lib/firefox-1.0
24      /usr/lib/firefox-1.0.1
25112   /usr/lib/firefox-1.0.2

There's some chrome stuff leftover in the first two, only the Java plugin 
let in the 1.0.1 one.  My guess is that this one is an improvement over 
the older ones, but still leaves behind things it didn't install.  It 
doesn't install Java.  The new one did copy my Java plugin symlink.
