As mentioned before, Firefox 3 is becoming available for those who are running
-current,
not users of
-release or
-stable. If you are unfamiliar with these terms, you should study Section 5.1 of the FAQ:
http://openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#Flavors
Most likely, you are running 4.3
-release. You can verify this by the command:
$ sysctl kern.version
Correct. Firefox 3 is
not available to users of 4.3
-release. Most likely, it will not be backported.
The link provided in your original message is to the
-current ports tree. The
-current ports tree is
only to be used with the
-current system. Those who attempt to mix
-current packages & ports with
-release or
-stable will at best experience weird behaviour; at worst, the applications will not function at all. For more information, study Section 15.4.1 of the FAQ:

Officially, no.
Firefox 3 will be available in OpenBSD 4.4 which will be officially released November 1, 2008.
