Preliminary support for Firefox 3.7 just went in to trunk thanks to
the hard work by John Tamplin. You'll need to build the extension
yourself. It's currently working on Linux and Mac, and Windows support
for VS will be coming later.

The plugins live at trunk/plugins/ and you should invoke the makefile
from that directory. You'll want to set your environment with
BROWSER=ff40 (e.g. export BROWSER=ff40 with bash) to tell the makefile
that you want to build for Minefield. Also note you will need to
checkout the plugin-sdks parallel to your trunk/ checkout of gwt:

in same folder as GWT trunk, do
svn co https://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/plugin-sdks

If you don't want to mess with getting libidl on your box, you can
comment out the lines199-203 in xpcom/Makefile which call out to
xpidl. The generated file is up in svn so you don't need to run this
portion if libidl gives you trouble.

After a successful build, you'll find the extension packaged at
xpcom/prebuilt/gwt-dev-plugin.xpi
