I haven't tried it on Mac, but the difference can be only in
XULRunner.
I propose creating a xulrunner feature and putting it on SVN. This
feature could contain xulrunner plugins for all supported OSes and the
xpcom plugin.
Eclipse would load a corresponding plugin based on "Platform Filter" in
the manifest file.
In this way, we would have one archive for all the OSes and wouldn't
depend on the ATF/Mozilla plugins.
We already have a XULRunner feature, that does precisely this.. see:

Bundling all of XULRunner's platform-specific plugins into one bundle is
a Bad Idea(TM) as each platform weighs in around 15+ MB, effectively
increasing our binary size by 30MB.
