[Bug classpath/42578] New: Failing libgcjwebplugin in Chromium

[gregoire at gentil dot com]

I'm trying to make work java applet in Chromium and more generally in
webkit-gtk on an ARM platform (though it shouldn't matter so much).

On Chromium, the plugin loads correctly after the following fix is applied: 
extern "C" is missing in libgcjwebplugin
http://git.alwaysinnovating.com/cgit.cgi/ai.openembedded.dev/diff/recipes/classpath/files/gcjwebplugin-c-problem.patch

But then the plugins is stuck at xpcom_instance->GetPeer (&peer); in static
gchar*
plugin_get_documentbase (NPP instance) of
classpath-0.98/native/plugin/gcjwebplugin.cc:
http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/classpath/native/plugin/gcjwebplugin.cc?root=classpath&view=markup

This call never returns. Any idea what I could do to make it work? I'm OK to
try to patch but I'm clueless what to do. Please avoid telling me that it's a
Chromium bug ;-) as I'm sure that the Chromium team will say it's a Classpath
bug.
