The latest upstream and the latest Firefox is part of Fedora 13.  
Upstart switched the syntax in their latest version and switching it in
an update is tedious and not necessary.  Similarly, a number of programs
rely on XULRunner and has to be rebuild if Fedora wanted to push the
very latest version as an update not to mention regressions such as the
JVM plugin not working for sometime.  So what is being held back is done
so for good reasons.  This has nothing to do with boot time.
