Comment (by mikeperry):

 Ok. The XPCOM error was due to the libxul and other support libraries
 still being linked against a libgcc and libstdc++ that still used the
 msvcrt. GK rebuilt those libs against msvcr100.dll and provided me with
 this binary:

 install-3.0-alpha-3_en-US.exe

 torbrowser-install-3.0-alpha-3_en-US.exe
