Linux-flashplugin7 & rtld - RFC

There's a reasonably well-known way to make Flash7 player work in FreeBSD, described here:

http://www.jail.se/freebsd.html

It involves patching the rtld with this patch:

http://www.jail.se/freebsd/rtld_dlsym_hack.diff

I'm not an expert, but this patch looks like free lunch - it doesn't look like it's going to break anything (though not much software depends on it :) ) - can it be committed to current and releng_6?
