First, the mimeTypes that you pass to RegisterPlugin should be:
NS_INLINE_PLUGIN_CONTRACTID_PREFIX "application/x-java-vm"
not just "application/x-java-vm"
If you are using NS_IMPL_NSGETMODULE, it's preprocessed into a call to
NS_NewGenericModule
(http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/xpcom/components/nsIGenericFactory.h#125)
Try to step through that and see if there are any errors generated.
Does your RegisterSelf even get called?
