Dont do bash so I did the above with csh:

%csh /usr/X11R6/bin/firebird -remote 'openURL(http://gnome.org,
new-tab)'
moz_libdir=/usr/X11R6/lib/firebird/lib/mozilla-1.5a: Command not found.
MRE_HOME=/usr/X11R6/lib/firebird/lib/mre/mre-1.5a: Command not found.
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME: Undefined variable.

That is all it did.
