Anything affecting something installed from the ports collection should 
be a 'ports' PR.  Not to pick on the submitter, but there have been a 
number of these recently -- please help us ports committers out so that 
we can track these PRs.  Thanks.

On FreeBSD 4.10-p3, there is no problem in resizing, in fvwm 2.5.11,
firefox 1.0.r2,1 -- built/installed from ports WITHOUT_XFT &
WITH_OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS.  Perhaps try the newer version?

This sounds more like a WM problem than a Firefox problem.  I have no 
problem resizing Firefox in GNOME using metacity.
