technically, it seems to have been installed twice.

   % locate libnullplugin | xargs ls -l
   -r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  19336 Nov 12 18:14 /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/libnullplugin.so
   -r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  19336 Nov 12 18:14 /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugins/libnullplugin.so
   -rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  19396 Aug 23 07:49 /usr/pkg/lib/netscape/netscape7/plugins/libnullplugin.so
   % locate libnullplugin | xargs pkg_info -FI
   mozilla-1.1nb1      Open-source version of the Netscape browser
   mozilla-1.1nb1      Open-source version of the Netscape browser
   netscape7-0nb2      Netscape Browser/Mail- and Newsreader suite version 7

i don't know which one gets run either, so they should both probably
"go".

ps - what about writing a new nullplugin that simply does nothing?
