Huh, well. I abhore Adobe Flash but sadly too many things still rely on it. Yes, gnash and lightspark are nice things but sadly Adobe continues (like many years b4) to introduce new crap (and security problems) all the time. So the other can only follow.
But since it runs horrible in 64bit environments I decided to give Gnash another try. Sadly 0.8.9 did not even compile. So back to 0.8.8 which - after unneccessary quarreling about an older slotted boost lib - finally installed. Seems so-so. Some things work, others don't. I just hope some HTML5+ video system will soon be widely spread. Still leaves flash for its core capabilites, moved vector graphics and small (violent ) games.
