Details
The Communicator code that compared native versions before upgrading a file was
never ported to Mozilla -- this needs to be done so that 1) we will not
accidentally downgrade a system .DLL and 2) we don't repeatedly reinstall the
same version (triggering reboot requests).

This needs to get pushed out since the nsIFile stuff isn't landing until the
day of the M13 freeze. Trying to squeeze this in isn't very realistic.

wontfix, changing now would really mess people up (and this functionality in
fact did cause problems for people in the past). Install scripts that really,
really need this can do it manually using methods on the File object to check
the native version of a .dll before installing over it.
