I did install the linuxpluginwrapper:

1) Firefox doesn't have an LD_PRELOAD entry.  So, there's nothing to 
change here?

2) I don't even have a /etc/libmap.conf.  So, rather than change lines I 
put the ones they suggested in there.  It says SEE ALSO, %%LIBMAPCONF%%. 
  What is that?

3) So, when I apply this dlsym(7) patch, what do I do next?  Rebuild 
world and reinstall?  It doesn't say.

4) It doesn't even say HOW to setup Flash7 support even though it's not 
reliable.

So, I don't see what's so crystal clear here.
