Has anyone else lost their flash7 plugin in firefox on 6-STABLE?

I've been trying to figure this one out for several days!

/usr/src/libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.c has the dlsym patch applied

Here is my current etc/libmap.conf which I updated after upgrading to 
the most
recent firefox

# [ALPHA SUPPORT] Flash7 with Mozilla
[/usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/libflashplayer.so]
libpthread.so.0     libpthread.so.2
libdl.so.2      /usr/local/lib/pluginwrapper/flash7.so
libz.so.1     libz.so.3
libm.so.6     libm.so.4
libc.so.6     /usr/local/lib/pluginwrapper/flash7.so

Here are the  contents of my /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins

Everything was working well until about Oct 10.  I'm not sure if 
problems ocurred after
updating the base system or the ports.  I'll be rebuilding the base 
again but I wanted to send
this out first in case the openldap upgrade hoses my sendmail [... sigh, 
too late].  Ports tree was updated on Oct 15 (today).

If there is anything other information I should provide please let me know.

Thanks in advance,

Duane Whitty
