>Environment:
FreeBSD orochi.scit.us 7.0-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p4 #2: Thu Sep  4 01:26:17 EDT 2008     root@orochi.scit.us:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CUSTOM  i386

>Description:
port www/mozplugger requires a configuration file, mozpluggerrc, to load correctly.  This file is installed as /usr/local/etc/mozpluggerrc, but "/usr/local/etc" is not one of the search paths hardcoded in mozplugger.c:find_helper_file function.  Therefore it is not found.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install firefox 3? and mozplugger in a clean box.  Copy mozplugger.so to ~/.mozilla/plugins.

Run firefox from the commandline and watch the error message popup.
>Fix:
copy mozpluggerrc into /etc.

Patch the mozplugger.c:find_helper_file function so that it obeys the ${PREFIX} variable.
