Portage just updated firefox-bin to 21.0, and after that I had no
firefox plugins.

Finally I discovered that the new version apparently ignores the
traditional symlink /opt/firefox/plugins->/usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins

I worked around it by creating my own symlink  ~/.mozilla/plugins->
and all the plugins are working again.

Maybe this will save some time for you.  Dunno if this a bug or not.

I guess it's a bug / change by upstream which has gone unnoticed by 
maintainer of the ebuild. File @ bgo.
