Actually I just figured it out. There's a WITH_PLUGINS knob in the port 
makefile that I don't remember from before. Now it links plugins. One problem 
though, it puts them in browser_linux_plugins which native firefox doesn't 
see. I relinked them into browser_plugins and now it works again. realplayer 
still doesn't work, but that's an old problem. Looks like that port is a bit 
broken so I'll fire the maintainer an email.
Thanks for the reply,
