Here is the message from the plugin (on stderr):
INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Some problem with the version 5

System error?:: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden

... with default user agent:
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3; Linux)

I didn't think far enough. Valgrind was running but stderr of the child 
process was redirected to /dev/null. So I didn't view any output.
What I did now:
derived my own Process class from KProcess. Overwrote the function 
commSetupDoneC() which, as I found finally out, does this redirection to 
/dev/null and started the nspluginviewer with valgrind.

Now I'm finally staring at stack traces :)

The original commSetupDoneC() redirects all three std fds to /dev/null if 
Communication is NoCommunication.
Is this behaviour of KProcess really ok or should it at least be documented ?
Normally, I would expect, that these fds are inherited from the parent process 
and that they are only changed in case of Communication != NoCommunication.
