Flash7 with native browsers were unstable for a long time.
So I had no motivation to commit my patch to source tree.
However, in recently, flash7 was updated to 7.0r61. I expect
that flash7 will be stable, and I'm testing 7.0r61 now.
Now I'm research why libflashplayer.so cannot find gtk_major_version
function. I think that dlsym(3) should be similar behavior
like Linux one:-). So I'll modify dlsym(3) to become behavior
of Linux's dlsym(3).
