This is very outdated (based on the freebsd-multimedia@ thread from June
2006) -- with exception of link to Matteo Riondato's blog. There is no
need to apply rtld_dlsym_hack.diff anymore, at least on 6.2-RELEASE,
but I think that's true for 6.1 as well.

The flash-related questions/answers appeared probably >10 or 15 times on
various FreeBSD lists in last 3-4 months. These threads contain
everything related to installation problems, warning messages and other
problems. In total, if Flash7 and Acrobat plugins don't work inside
native browsers _flawlessly_, then user does something wrong.
