Details

The mac installer currently flattens xpcom.xpi at install time, which was done 
because of CFM linkage issues (components need to find non-component DLLs). This 
causes the Mac installer to be "different" to the other platforms, which results 
in bugs like bug 105437. We should fix this.

Quoth Steve Dagley: "The Mac installer code was never Carbonized and there is no
intention to ever change that."
