Indeed I followed the webkit-image qt method and presto - it works.
Thanks for the tip !

Here is the method I used :

apt-get install build-essential libqt4-dev libqt4-webkit pkg-config
svn co
http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/editors/josm/plugins/wmsplugin
cd wmsplugin
make webkit-image
sudo cp webkit-image /usr/local/bin/

Then in JOSM, in Edit/Preferences select 'webkit-image {0}' as the
command for the plugin. Then it works.
