I'm plesure to support Macromedia Flash7 plugin.
o Update to 20041017.
o Flash7 support is alpha quality.
o mozilla looks good, but firefox looks bad. firefox has
a double free problem with Flash7. I don't know how to
fix this problem.
o For Flash7 support, we must apply a rtld dlsym(3) patch.
Please read pkg-message for detail.

o Accordingly, Flash6 plugin was more stable and robust with libc_r.
Maybe, I'll stop to hear that some browsers (firefox, epiphany, etc..)
will be overrun on own exit.
o With the result, /etc/libmap.conf sould be updated. Please be careful.
[libflashplayer.so]
libpthread.so.0 liblthread.so.3
to
libpthread.so.0 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
o Acrobat plugin became beta1 quality state and more stable. You will
be able to view PDF on native browsers with PTHREAD(KSE/THR), but I'm
afraid that /usr/local/Acrobat5/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread will
not exit. Because acrobat plugin cannot stop it. I think that
I should add more (some?) pthread(3) functions.
Please be careful:
Native browsers with acrobat requires libKSE/THR/PTHREAD.
On libc_r, these will be overrun.
o Major errno (ENOENT, ...) are almost same between FreeBSD's and Linux's.
So I didn't convert it. But EAGAIN is not same between these. So
I fixed this, and acrobat became good.

linux-plugins like flash6(almost stable) and acroread5(unstable,
you can use only one shot from boot) with native browsers.
