Wow, Excellent!

It seems adobe-flash-player 24.0.0.194 works on
NetBSD/i386 7.1_RC1 with the following changes:
 http://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2014/10/17/msg059559.html
 http://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2017/02/12/msg081959.html

On NetBSD/amd64 7.1_RC1 with the same changes 24.0.0.194 also works,
but it seems only with pkgsrc/multimedia/libflashsupport,
i.e. only works with OSS support without ALSA.

Without libflashsupport on amd64 (i.e. with Linux native ALSA),
sound doesn't work and the plugin hangs even with alsa + oss or
alsa + pulseaudio, while adobe-flash-plugin 11.2.202.644 works
with alsa + oss.

Note 11.2.202.644 doesn't work either with alsa + pulseaudio,
as mentioned in PR/50603:
 http://gnats.netbsd.org/50603

Anyway, your es_arglen change should also be pulled up to netbsd-7 ASAP.
Thanks!
