mozplugger, from the main debian archive:

Description: Plugin allowing external viewers to be launched inside Mozilla
 mozplugger allows you to seamlessly integrate external applications
 to view files downloaded from the web that Mozilla can not normally
 handle. The application is embedded within a Mozilla window as to act
 like and feel like a true plugin.
 .
 This allows to you view PDFs, Postscript files, animations and
 movies, amongst other file types all from within Mozilla (with
 supporting applications).


I just installed it, and now firefox shows pdf's inline. I'll
uninstallit again, as I don't like that, but it does work:).
