Last time I upgraded that port, I found the location of the flash plugin had 
changed. I meant to email the maintainer to suggest an entry in UPDATING 
about it, but I don't think I got around to doing that.
Anyway, check that the plugin really exists where your libmap.conf says it is.
I found it had changed from /usr/local/lib to /usr/X11R6/lib so the flash 
section of my libmap.conf now looks like:

# Flash6 with Konqueror (temporary setting)
# old setting:- [/usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so]
[/usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so]
libpthread.so.0                 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
libdl.so.2                      pluginwrapper/flash6.so
libz.so.1                       libz.so.2
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3        libstdc++.so.4
libm.so.6                       libm.so.3
libc.so.6                       pluginwrapper/flash6.so

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
