Perhaps try directly inspecting the value of mime_type_external_handlers
to ensure that it is correct.

To make Conkeror forget about PDF plugins, you should simply ensure that
wherever xulrunner is looking for plugins, the PDF plugin cannot be
found. You can look at about:plugins to see if it is registered. There
is also something you can do with configuration files to make it ignore
a particular plugin for particular MIME types. Firefox has a UI to do
this through its preferences window. You can see about creating the
suitable configuration files (I think they end up having an rdf
extension), and then copying them possibly with some modification to
Conkeror's profile directory.
