The NSS makefiles should restrict the symbols exported from the dynamic shared libraries on Mac OS X: http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsblame.cgi?file=mozilla/security/coreconf/rules.mk&rev=1.83&mark=316,343-347#316 Perhaps that makefile rule is not working as intended? Or perhaps Firefox Sync developers were using the static library libfreebl.a (which loads libfreebl3.dylib at run time) on Mac OS X?
