It looks to be patched in configure, but not configure.in, so it will work
as-is, but resurface if configure is regenerated.

mdz@drescher:~/firefox-2.0+0dfsg$ grep @PLT configure configure.in
configure: if test `grep -c "@PLT" conftest.S` = 0; then
configure: if test `grep -c "@PLT" conftest.S` = 0; then
configure.in: if test `grep -c "@PLT" conftest.S` == 0; then
configure.in: if test `grep -c "@PLT" conftest.S` == 0; then
