I looked in about:buildconfig for my copy of Firefox (the latest, 2.0.0.13) but I don't see anything that looks like a profile in the Firefox Compiler flags: -Wall -W -Wno-unused -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wno-long-long -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -fpascal-strings -no-cpp-precomp -fno-common -I/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/Developer/Headers/FlatCarbon; or Configure arguments: --target=i386-apple-darwin8.7.0 --with-macos-sdk=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk --enable-application=browser --enable-update-channel=release --enable-official-branding '--enable-optimize=-O2 -g' --disable-debug --disable-tests --enable-update-packaging --enable-static --disable-shared --enable-svg --enable-canvas?
