Rob,

I had problems with this release as well until I found and renamed
several nswrapper_XX_XX.libflashplayer.so files to so.save and restarted
Firefox.

I believe a more appropriate alternative location for libflashplayer.so
for all users would be in:
/usr/lib/flash-plugin/

Then make soft-links to that file in:
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/

This seems to be working well.
