A possibly aggravating factor is that with both the Sun and IcedTea plugins 
installed, BOTH plugins are loaded.  This appears to be because xulrunner is 
loading plugins from two locations:
* /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins (or /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.7/plugins, 
which is a symlink) 
* AND /usr/lib/xulrunner/plugins

but is only installing ONE alternative entry for the plugin, while the
Sun plugin installs seven.  This appears to be because
openjdk/debian/rules is overriding browser_plugin_dirs to just be
xulrunner-addons.   See attached patch.


I suspect that this bug  and bug #344669 may be duplicates.  This is because 
applets that worked under IcedTea *before* installing the sun plugin (as I 
reported in bug #344669) ceased to work after the following sequence of events:
1: the sun plugin was installed
2: update-java-alternatives --set java-6-sun
3: update-java-alternatives --plugin --set java-6-openjdk
My uncertainty is because I am running Jaunty 64-bit, while this bug does not 
state which architecture is involved.
