I suppose that might be of use between multiple computers [though if I were doing that I'd probably get a USB key & use the portable version of Firefox], but when it's on the same computer, just different Operating Systems, I would have thought that the different installs all using the same profile stored in the same place would be simpler.
Maybe But its also handy if you wipe the OS and forget to copy the profile first..

Also less chance if one of them storing something the other doesn't like such as some extensions which are platform specific E.g Ietab
