0.9.8_1,1.  I'm worried that this might be one of the changes I made to the
port.  It looks like there's no simple answer, and I'm going to have to
debug things...

This was on -CURRENT.  I'm going to build the JDK and Mozilla with debugging
on -STABLE now, and see if I get the same behaviour, and back things out to
0.9.7 on -CURRENT and see if that works.

Is this with green threads or native threads?  The port failed to build with
native threads for me...

I posted another message in response to my original, with some debugging
output which suggests that the plugin is not being correctly linked with
libxpcom from Mozilla.

Something which concerns me greatly is that the plugin seems to be linked
with references to all sorts of Mozilla things, but I didn't have Mozilla
installed at the time I built it...  This probably means that the plugin is
being built with it's own copy of a lot of private headers, which are out of
date for 0.9.8.

I guess we're going to have to look into building the plugin as a seperate
port, which depends on Mozilla.

Can you try the latest port (I committed some changes just over 24 hours
ago), and 1. See if the plugin works, and 2. If it doesn't build, please
report the build error that you got...  I'll fix it for you.

Regards,
  -Jeremy
