Mmmh.... This CL is causing
http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=13605 to appear.

WebPluginImpl::scriptableObject is supposed to add a refcount to the npobject
(see the NPAPI implementation).

The previous code was wrong, but worked because of 2 bugs and luck:
PluginObject::Create leaks a reference, and this function failed to add one, and
is called only once. It all cancels out.
Unfortunately the new code passes an object on which a reference is never added,
so when the JS engine is done with it and garbage collects it, it destroys it
keeping garbage pointers all around.
Similarly, the instance's object's npobject doesn't get released any more.
