No it isn't done for NSS and NSPR. They are still developed in cvs and 
when they are upgraded the source gets merged into mozilla-central on hg 
- which version is just tracked by the tags in cvs.

mozilla-central builds have everything included in hg, they didn't want 
to go the multiple repository way because of the one or two extra steps 
it would cause them to do - so they do duplicate the code (but the rule 
is no-one checks into the nss/nspr directories apart for when upgrading).
