Oh, it should be no problem, as long as one is building a 32-bit firefox,
presumably in one's 32-bit chroot, following the Gentoo/amd64 32-bit
chroot guide.
Of course, if one is building a standard 64-bit firefox and expecting the
32-bit flash shared object plugin to work in the 64-bit firefox process
address space, then one is in for a bit of disappointment, but that's only
common sense so should be expected and go without saying. =8^P
64 bit firefox & 32 bit plugins, heard of nspluginwrapper? =) WIP &
I've seen varying reports of success from different people, but it
works well for me.
As for the web page in question, I see the exact same behaviour Mark
describes on my system. Sounds more like a windows / linux thing than
a 32 / 64 bit thing. Just guessing tho.
