Hi,

I think you are referring to the libmap patch, that had to applied
manually to FreeBSD -stable, before libmap had been MFC'ed on Feb 3rd:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/libexec/rtld-elf/libmap.c

So, I guess that's the reason why flashpluginwrapper was marked
deprecated. Perhaps the comment in the Makefile should be a bit more
verbose and mention that libmap in -stable >= 490102.
