I just would like to point out that, at least for flash, there is an
alternative to the Macromedia binary plugin - gplflash. I've already submited a bug
with the necessary changes for gcc-3.1 (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4134).
Althought the FLASH version supported by this plugin is not the most
recent one I haven't found any problems in my daily browsing.

For curiosity, there is a Kaffe plugin for Mozilla (check the bottom of
http://www.kaffe.org/ports.shtml) but unfortunately it seems to be unmaintained. I'm not sure how is Kaffe suited for this too. Nevertheless if Sun and/or BlackDown doesn't come up with an usable Java plugin this is surely something worth to check out. Especially attending the (mentioned elsewhere) plans of having Kaffe as the default Gentoo virtual machine in the future.
