I got one to.  It has a DTM of 4/18/2008 on my F9 system.

When I did a locate on beagle, I got:

/usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.7/extensions/{fda00e13-8c62-4f63-9d19-d168115b11ca}/chrome/beagle.jar
/{fda00e13-8c62-4f63-9d19-d168115b11ca}/chrome/beagle.jar

So it looks like a leftover from Firefox 1.0.5 (which I had installed on 
FC6....), at least for me.
