THe issue here is that the libnspr4 in squeeze is too old to build
plugins. In a squeeze chroot with the build-deps installed I get:

# pkg-config --cflags mozilla-plugin
Package 'Mozilla Plug-In API' requires 'nspr >= 4.8.6' but version of NSPR is 4.8.4

I think xulrunner-dev needs a versioned build-dep on libnspr4 (>= 4.8.6)
