The only reason for the shell script was to be able to set
LD_LIBRARY_PATH properly or Galeon wouldn't start at all.  Now that
we're using -rpath that's no longer needed.

In a 'make install' installation of Mozilla plugins work just fine,
they're located in ${prefix}/lib/mozilla-${version}/plugins.  And I
believe unversioned directory isn't searched.

${prefix}/lib/mozilla/plugins is a modification in the Mozilla RPM, it's
up to the Galeon packager to make similar modifications, there shouldn't
be any distribution specific things in Galeon.

FWIW it should be trivial to move the binary to
${prefix}/lib/galeon/galeon (or libexec, or whatever the distribution
convention happens to be) and put the custom shell script in
${prefix}/bin
