I have a plugin installed in my system in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/.

Apparently it writes to stdout when it is embedded on page. So that plugins/embed-attributes-style.html test is failing.

I'm asking for an option to continue use a plugin installed in my system, but in the same time to be able to run webkit tests without failures. Otherwise I would be forced to use a completely new operating system installation specifically for running webkit tests.

Currently plugins paths are hardcoded in WebKit/Source/WebCore/plugins/PluginDatabase.cpp
It would be better if an option existed to skip default plugins directories when running tests.
