(the ld.so trick would let you do it if you could find the right binary
which may be browser.launch or something similarly strange.)

Why are you trying to do this?

Browsers generally speaking are dynamic creatures and will load other
modules at run time.

Debian package management has a concept of dependencies which you could
look at to get a general understanding of which libraries are required
by another binary. In fact, generally speaking the debian build system
is designed to answer this exact question....

Note that neither of these techniques will tell you that the flash
player plugin is used by the browser. For that, you're better served by
strace or something that lets you look at loaded libraries at runtime.
