I did find one hit that described getting gears to work with xulrunner

I checked out the page you mentioned and all they really do is modify
the extension's install.rdf to list webrunner as a supported
application. I had thought this wasn't necessary when xulrunner's
extension compatibility checking was disabled, but after listing
Conkeror in Gears' install.rdf, the extension loaded without error.
I'd appreciate it if you (or anyone) could give it a test run. (It
loads, but that doesn't necessarily mean it works.) Here is a version
of the extension which should load in Conkeror:
http://servo.cc/gears-linux-opt-conkeror.xpi
To modify the extension yourself:
1. Download the extension.
2. Make a scratch directory and extract the xpi there. (It is a zip file.)
3 Add an entry for Conkeror to install.rdf. (See the patch attached to
this message.)
4. Zip the contents of the scratch directory and name the file
gears-linux-opt-conkeror.xpi.
Hope this helps,

I've added some notes about Google Gears to the wiki. Notably, there are
some ideas about getting it working on Windows.
