Normally, Petrucci glyphs with a single flag are transcribed to modern
notation as 16th, so glyphs with two flags would be rather 32nds.

Thanks in advance. As Graham mentioned in another e-mail, it might be
hard to find, though.

Well, no. AFAICS, Petrucci flags are identical for
between-staff-lines and on-staff-line situations, which simplifies
things.

If Graham's is right, the two-flags glyph might have only an
incomplete second flag.
