As Aaron points out, mplayerplug-in, mozplugger, netscape-plugger,
netscape-flash and gplflash do not have the mozilla useflag. They are
"pure" plug-ins, so the useflag doesn't make sense here.

For acroread, I suggest we make the same change.

We can add it locally to acroread, too, if people are worried about
having it as a global USE flag.

That would indeed be very attractive (apart from it having to be
"global", which is not strictly necessary).
