I forgot about the ebuild changelog file -- I knew I should
have been able to figure this out somehow.  It was the
afternoon/night of the 20th that they got upgraded.  Heck, the
packages were probably back to unstable before the all of
builds finished.

For other packages I wouldn't care much, but flipping back and
forth between "semi-major" versions of firefox/xulrunner is
both fairly disruptive and takes hours and hours of build-time.

I guess I'll leave them as-is for a while.  Firefox 3.5 is
noticably snappier, and downgrading them will take all evening.
