I've just had a look at FireFox about:plugins and I'm both worried and confused.
No surprise there; it happens a lot when I peek under the covers.  :o)

There are two versions of the Java plugin listed, with the same libjavaplugin_oji.so
filename.  The latest is Java 1.5.0_04b05.

There are two versions of Flash listed, also with one and the same filename:
libflashplayer.so.

Don't know how this happend. You can check where they come from with:

$ locate libflashplayer.so
 or without slocate installed
$ find / -name libflashplayer.so

Perhaps you loaded an old version from /home/user/.mozilla/plugins ?

Also: I would like the Adobe Acrobat plugin, but
1) I don't see it in 'eix' or 'emerge -s'.
2) The instructions for installing from an existing Acrobat install are not effective
     with the portage-installed acrobat.

I don't know what you're referring to here, but this should do the trick:

# mkdir -p /etc/portage/
# echo app-text/acroread nsplugin >> /etc/portage/package.use
# emerge -avt acroread
