Can you let us know what the bug number was? We still try to keep
XULRunner working on all platforms and I hadn't heard that there were
any problems on OSX recently.

Long term it should be said that Mozilla isn't committed to supporting
XULRunner. At some point if the work required to keep it working is too
much it will likely be dropped permanently. For now we try to keep an
eye on it and fix problems as they arise which is thankfully rare.
