The problems with linuxpluginwrapper exist in RELENG_6 as well.
Actually, I've had better luck with flash and linux-firefox on CURRENT
than I have on 6.1-PRERELEASE.

The problems with acrobat reader are also in 6.1-PRERELEASE.  Running
them both, one at home, one at work, I haven't found any real difference
in how various ports work, save for the abovementioned, that
linux-firefox works better with flash in CURRENT.
