I *just* ran into this with a co-worker's machine. I fixed it by downloading the conflicting packages from the
fedora testing repo:

http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/testing/17/x86_64/

I download nss-3.14.2-2.fc17.x86_64.rpm, tried to install it, got a list of dependencies (nspr, nss-softokn and
nss-softokn-freebl I believe), downloaded the RPMs for them as well and then was able to update to 3.14.2 to
resolve the conflicts.

I suspect that a testing package got into updates before the rest of the dependencies did. My solution is certainly
not ideal, but it got it working.

yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update xulrunner\*

this way the deps get solved, updates-testing enabled
only for this transaction and only pulls the needed
packages from testing

This is like the eighth time I've seen xulrunner updated without its
requirements being pushed out first. I'm not sure who the maintainer
is, but (s)he needs a spanking.
