 * @param versionsLength   The length of the versions array.
 * @param properties       A null-terminated list of GRE property/value pairs
 *                         which must all be satisfied.
 * @param propertiesLength Length of the properties array.
 * @param buffer           A buffer to be filled with the appropriate path. If
 *                         the "local" GRE is specified (via the USE_LOCAL_GRE
 *                         environment variable, for example), this buffer
 *                         will be set to the empty string.
 * @param buflen           The length of buffer. This must be at least
 *                         PATH_MAX/MAXPATHLEN.
 * @throws NS_ERROR_FAILURE if an appropriate GRE could not be found.
 * @note The properties parameter is ignored on macintosh, because of the
 *       manner in which the XUL frameworks are installed by version.
 * @note Currently this uses a "first-fit" algorithm, it does not select
 *       the newest available GRE.
