100185 - 0.9.4 plug-in directory can't deal with java class/zip files

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 97362

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Joseph Shelby]

platform: Redhat 7.1 on Dell PIII, using talkback mozilla 0.9.4.  Mozilla is
installed and owned by my personal account, in a subdirectory of my home
directory (i.e., this is not a "system-wide" installation as root or anything
like that).

I use only 3 plug ins (besides libnull...) : realplayer, java, and shockwave.

With 0.9.1 and 0.9.3, the plug-in directory that contains the .so files for
those plugins also contains raclass.zip (a set of 4 .class files for the
realplayer plugin) and ShockwaveFlash.class (I'll let you guess who needs that
one).  These releases worked fine in this configuration.

With 0.9.4, I am getting error messages on the console (or shell) that started
mozilla, immediately on startup: 

LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/home/jshelby/mozilla0.9.4/plugins/raclass.zip
[/home/jshelby/mozilla0.9.4/plugins/raclass.zip: invalid ELF header]
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/home/jshelby/mozilla0.9.4/plugins/ShockwaveFlash.class
[/home/jshelby/mozilla0.9.4/plugins/ShockwaveFlash.class: invalid ELF header]

And as a result, neither realplayer nor shockwave "pages" want to run in the
browser.

The documentation does nothing to recommend where those .zip and .class files
need to be moved to.
