I'm running Firefox and don't have Mozilla on any of my boxes. The idea for the symlink was so plugins would install in the proper directory and save several steps in having to move them. Seems the proper thing would be to just remove the symlink after installing pluginwrapper. In a perfect world that port would just be patched to do the right install (including paths), but that is beyond my programming abilities.
