No, you cannot register XULRunner on a Mac.  Instead, XULRunner is 
installed as a Framework.  The method Mozilla.getGREPathWithProperties() 
looks for the installed framework.  If you didn't install XULRunner 
correctly, then getGREPathWithProperties() will not find it and return null.

This is your built version and not installed.  The locations that 
getGREPathWithProperties() will look at are 
/Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework and ~/Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework.
