Binary package hint: firefox

There are several reasons to do this - first and foremost for 32-bit plugin compatibility and without using the quirky nspluginwrapper, and there are still some other rough edges including some java issues.  32-bit version also uses less memory .
 
Even the M$ includes 32-bit IE in their "x64" systems ;)

** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu)
