IMHO, also hence the need to maintain gappletbrowser + gcjwebplugin in the
interim .  Why must I install yet another whole subsystem just to get 
a java applet displaying in my browser with GCJ + libjava, when it
used not to require one ?  
If gappletbrowser + gcjwebplugin is so thoroughly deprecated, then
gcc's configure should refuse to accept the '--enable-browser-plugin'
option, or, if it does accept it, something like the patch attached
to this bug must be applied to enable the browser plugin to compile.

Yes, I am building against firefox-4.0 / xulrunner-2.0 but the same problem 
will occur if user try to '--enable-browser-plugin' against firefox-3.6 SDK,
because as Comment #2 shows, they removed the nsIPluginTagInfo2 interface
in firefux-3.6 .
