What seemed to work, was (since the source tarball isn't configured for
FEdora as the way they have it setup) to make a link
from /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and that let
the firefox-4 work with plugins.

That way all your 64 bit packages work and no 32 bit needed.  Although,
the security flaw with the current 64bit flash might make you install
32bit, who knows.
