Maybe they're not 'unusual' dependencies, but they're by no
means self-contained. Here are the firefox dependencies for
Ubuntu Breezy ('apt-cache show firefox'), which tend to
mirror the sid dependencies:
Depends: fontconfig, psmisc, debianutils (>= 1.16),
libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.9.0), libc6 (>= 2.3.4-1), libcairo2
(>= 1.0.0), libfontconfig1 (>= 2.3.0), libfreetype6
(>= 2.1.5-1), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.0.1), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.8.0),
libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.8.0), libidl0, libjpeg62, libkrb53 (>= 1.3.2),
libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.10.0), libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.8rel), libstdc++6
(>= 4.0.1), libx11-6, libxcursor1 (>> 1.1.2), libxext6,

Hi, Stephen. I think we are referring to different 'binaries'.
The ones I am referring to are the pre-compiled binaries
downloadable from Mozilla.org, having only the requirements
specified here:
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/system-requirements.html
This is pretty much a standard Linux distribution with X and
GTK2. This is a fairly wide audience of Linux distributions,
most of which certainly do not require debianutils.
