Not yet. We've received some requests to support it, but I think we can't 
until problems of this sort are resolved. The NameServiceSwitch clash can be 
solved by proxying the NSS requests to a separate process; nss-ldapd does this 
and also OpenLDAP's nssov module does as well. But the larger problem of how 
to initialize MozNSS correctly when multiple libraries use it within one 
process remains unsolved.
