I'm sure the CVS version of firefox requires a newer version of
NSS/NSPR. In that case, I would remove the --enable-system-{nss,nspr}
arguments in .mozconfig and let it build the version that is in the
CVS tree. It won't interfere with the versions in /usr. Otherwise, you
can try installing CVS versions of NSS/NSPR to /usr. They wouldn't be
usable by firefox-2.x or thunderbird-2.x, though. The first solution
sounds easier.
