Which version of GCC are you using?  The hacks.mk file for xulrunner
removes any -march flags supplied on i386 for GCC <4.4 because of
SSE2 code generation problems in older versions of GCC.  Perhaps the
latest Firefox code base is also exposing an issue for amd64. I would
try disabling cpuflags for the build, that could fix the problem
(albeit without giving you the most optimized code, obviously).
