I have been informed offlist, that we actually have indeed been shipping 
the x86_64 firefox.  I'm going to share this tidbit so that others know 
about it because it isn't widely known.

The x86_64 java plugin is here

/usr/java/<java version>/jre/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so

I'll work on updating java-1.6.0-sun-compat to include this.
