Could you point to the exact file that you downloaded? The mac binaries come as
a foo.dmg.gz file, not a zipfile.

Is that happens with the branch (latest 0.9) or trunk build?

It's the version on the public website marked for general distribution.  *NOT* the binaries.

I don't have access to the developer tree to tell which build it is.

just provide the exact url.

most likely gecko decoded the file for you but didn't rename it. try renaming it
to .dmg

I would think...
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/0.9/firefox-0.9-mac.dmg.gz
Only Mac OS X Firefox URL on mozilla.org (that I know of)... and it WFM.

Other possiable ones...
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-0.9/Firefox-mac.dmg.gz
WFM

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/Firefox-mac.dmg.gz
WFM

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/0.9/firefox-0.9-source.tar.bz2
WFM

WFM as well. Can you still reproduce this with a recent nightly?
