Methinks flash upgrades in Gentoo are a mess. Every time a new version
is out it comes to 64-bit systems, even if new plugin is 32-bit. As of
today you should mask the latest version and go back to latest 64-bit
flash. Why it cannot execute it is another story, it should run if you
are using multilib profile and IA32 is enabled in kernel.
