I find that firefox use quirks mode to parse gentoo web site[1]
this might make it show slower [2],and not match the standards
this can be fixed by this patch,add correct DOCTYPE setting

[1]in firefox menu -> tools ->page info

It looks like this small change makes firefox render the page a bit worse than expected so we'll need to do some CSS fixes as well.

Some css elements need a bottom margin.
