It is within my plans to add MozillaFirebird as a directory, but in our 
earlier discussion at fedora.us we came to a consensus that rejected 
"mozilla-firebird" as a directory name and package name because:

1) It makes it sound like it is a sub-package of mozilla, which is incorect.
2) MozillaFirebird was the original name, and there was little point is 
changing that since under the mozilla branding strategy document of the 
time, the browser would eventually become "Mozilla Browser" in order to 
appease the database guys.

Unless faced with something more convincing, I am not going to add 
"mozilla-firebird".

Actually, the glob wildcard that the script currently uses should 
actually pull that in.  I'm not sure why the script fails with Dag's 
package.  Can somebody please figure this one out and report back?
