Yeah, there's a good reason why, back when I was at Sun, we considered
having libraries versioned by file name to be a toxic solution.

That doesn't look like the big problem here, but it's certainly no help.

If I'm reading that correctly, the code that is (or at least was at one
point) in run-mozilla.sh isn't doing its job.  It's supposed to set up
the right LD_LIBRARY_PATH, it it seems that it hasn't done so.  It
somehow left /usr/local/lib/firefox/plugins/ out of the mix, so ld.so.1
isn't able to locate the library by name alone at run time.
