This problem was reported against flashplugin-nonfree at
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=455283
What happened with this? Was it introduced in 4.0r2, the same way as in
testing? I have no etch install, but I checked the changelog and the package
a bit and I saw nothing mitigating this bug. There were more than 10
duplicates of the bug report requesting XEmbed support in upstream konqueror
nsplugins opened in the last 2 weeks.
