Actually, that's not true. "apt-cache show mozilla-firefox" reveals that
xprt is now only in the recommended line, instead of the Depends line.
In mozilla-browser it's in the Suggests line. I have been following the
latest Mozilla browser in Sarge while keeping xprt and friends
uninstalled. Works great, no special tricks necessary.
