Here is a partial stack dump after visiting my.yahoo.com with flash-6
installed:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x48976ace in strcmp () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
(gdb) bt
#0  0x48976ace in strcmp () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#1  0x4977ad63 in SecurityContextTable::GetContextForURLCore ()

#2  0x4977ad2a in SecurityContextTable::GetContextForURL ()

#4  0x497b49e8 in nsScriptablePeer::StopPlay ()
   from /usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so

So, obviously, flash-6 does not work all the time.

(This is on a relatively recent 4.10)
