------- Additional Comments from Dawit A. <adawit at kde.org>
This bug report is intended to supercede bug# 44324 and bug# 40567 as the
proper fix for the Gtk initialization problems that is prevelant in some
releases of Adobe's flash player plugins. Specifically, the patch attached
ensures that the workaround in applied ONLY to Adobe's plugin and nothing else.


I tested this change with both Adobe's proprietary plugin as well as Gnu's
gnash and everything seems to work fine. For those using the nspluginwrapper,
the Adobe workaround needs to be implemented inside of the wrapper itself since
it is responsible for loading the flash player plugin.
