Yep, it was a permissions issue with the .macromedia folders - made
FlashPlayer segfault when it tries to save to disk.
The valgrind log for FlashPlayer is full of nasties though ;)

Hello Glen,
works fine for me:
[SWF] C:\FDT\AS\Tests\Main.swf - 2 947 bytes after decompression
[object Main] loading persisted value
[object Main] loaded value is 123
[object Main] saving value 123

Hi Guys,
I am having a problem using SharedObjects on Gentoo - kernel 2.6.29 that
does not seem to appear in 2.6.30, but I want to make sure it is not because
of some setting on my machine.
We run FlashPlayer from the command line, but still seem to be governed by
the FlashPlayer settings, which have been "applied" using the browser and
the "Settings Panel SWF".
Problem is the following code in testPersistence() seems to kill the
FlashPlayer with a segfault in one of the libc libraries on my machine.
Because we are using cloned disks, I am a bit wary that the settings for FP
may be screwed, or a permissions error may be occurring.
I just wanted to know if anyone else has seen this at all - I have googled
and jira'd but no luck at the moment.
Cheers
Glen
