Am I missing something? While modern Android OS may share the same
kernel with a traditional Linux distro, its runtime library is not
binary compatible with the GNU libraries. As the flash plugin is not
available in source code I don't see why people can assume one can
just drop libflashplayer.so for Android and expect it to work and even
if it did you'd open a can of worms.

The only realistic solution (which I'm not going to try at the moment)
is to run some sort of Android SDK emulator. But if I have missed the
point please correct me where I'm wrong.
