	Recentry, wine is good solution for using Flash.

	I don't have any idea to fix LPW.

	1. Because linux-flash is too unstable, so I don't know weither
	   LPW is wrong or linux-flash is wrong.

	2. By multiple weak symbols solution issue(undefined/unstable
	   resolve weak symbols), I can't hook some important functions
	   like dl*(4).  I'm thinking merging to libc to fix, but I don't
	   have any evidence that it's true.  This issue is critical by
	   ELF Symbol Versioning.

	3. I think that LPW's solution is quite good solution, but it's
	   too hard solution:-).  Maybe, all glibc functions should be
	   hooked, and hack for some macros like getc:-(.
