> Mozilla Foundation can't accept Firefox specific donations because the Mozilla Foundation does not develop Firefox. The Mozilla Corporation does and the foundation cannot give money to the corporation (only the other way around).

Does that mean that not only it is impossible to make Firefox specific donations but also that it is guaranteed that none of the money donated to Mozilla can ever end up being used for Firefox development?

As GoOnThenDoTell pointed out, they could probably independently pay for Firefox developers but it'd probably be a messy approach.

Keep in mind that the Mozilla foundation gets something like $10 million in donations per year while the Corporation gets $500 million per year from Firefox search deals. So donations are a drop in the bucket compared to the existing revenue streams.
