Firefox point releases are versioned to match Gecko platform releases:

    Gecko 1.9.2.4 -> Firefox 3.6.4
    Gecko 1.9.2.6 -> Firefox 3.6.6

The Gecko 1.9.2.5 branch was created for a Mobile Firefox security release (Fennec 1.0.1). This did not affect Firefox 3.6, so there was no Firefox 3.6.5 release: http://christian.legnitto.com/blog/2010/06/09/heads-up-the-n...

Interesting. guess I should keep my half baked theories to myself. :)

That said.. I wonder what in the world the browsers reporting themselves as 3.6.5pre actually are...

The "pre" version numbers are used for nightlies and are not always kept up to date. For example, current nightlies are still labeled "3.7a6pre" even though Firefox 3.7 was renamed Firefox 4 weeks ago, and the next release will probably be Firefox 4.0b1.
