you /can/ use qemu to call the i386 flash plugin, while sitting on your 
ppc firefox. it should invoke correctly (has been done before).

roadblocks you currently face include compiling qemu yourself as fedora 
doesn't build a package for FC4. you need gcc compat libraries for this, 
and use gcc32 (or gcc33), as gcc4 and qemu don't bode well together

as for documentation, i don't have any handy /yet/, but a goal for 
january is to get all the ppc documentation up to scratch. good luck :)
