More accurately, it's *unsafe* not to!
It's conceivable that you may want to run firefox 3 and firefox 4 on the
same system and as such you will want xulrunner-1.9 and xulrunner-1.10
(or whatever) on the same system.
That's why version numbers are needed (in theory, major numbers on
libraries should mean that no subfolder at all is needed but that's just
not how upstream have packaged it AFAIK and major number abuse seems to
be a popular hobby over at MozHQ from what I've read (I've not looked
personally))
