I dont really know what happened but it is great. At the moment I am running firefox-bin (32bit) with netscape-flash (32bit) and blackdown-jdk (64bit) and everything works.
I will try to explain what I did: I was just experimenting with SuSE's Sun-jre to get java support working without crashes, but without any success. So I removed all of this jre (I'm sure there is nothing left). Then I started a 32bit-compiled version of firefox in my 32bit-chroot which created a new mozilla profile in my /home (I use the same /home for 64bit and 32bit-chroot). The next start of firefox-bin (out of my 64bit-environment and obviously using the new created profile) it suddenly works with the installed 64bit-blackdown-jdk and all other 32bit-plugins. I don't understand why, but it's true.
To verify this, I renamed the .mozilla directory to .mozillaxxx and started firefox-bin. It created a new .mozilla profile and the javaplugin didn't work anymore... Renaming it back let it work again :D
