Bug#576621: Everything is OK after an iceweasel restart

Just to be sure I reinstalled flashplugin-nonfree
and restarted iceweasel.  The browser had been up 
since the upgrade of libnss3-1d.  The odd thing is,
although I didn't notice any message saying I needed
to restarted iceweasel in the logged in user (gnome)
session.  But in the VNC session of a _different_ user,
a popup message said an iceweasel restart was needed.

The objdump output contains references to NSS_3.12.6 in 
both libraries.  Thanks for that diagnostic tool tip,
filed for future reference/use.

While these are iceweasel quirks and it would
make sense that one would have to restart the browser if
a plugin was reinstalled/upgraded, there was no way to 
know at the time of the libnss3-1d upgrade that one of the
reverse depends of libnss3-1d (flashplugin-nonfree) would
get trashed.  

OK to close.
