Actually, the sites try to retrieve the PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION, and
PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION are:

#define PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION \
  "Shockwave Flash "FLASH_VERSION".<br>Gnash "VERSION", the GNU SWF Player.

  Compatible Shockwave Flash "FLASH_VERSION

PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION should be

#define PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION \
  "Shockwave Flash "FLASH_VERSION

Actually, bbc site and youtube retrieve this PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION, like both
can't retrieve the version, youtube try with AVM1 support, and BBC, show a
message telling us about "download the correct version of Adobe Flash
Player", if we change the PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION to

#define PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION \
  "Shockwave Flash "FLASH_VERSION

both sites try AVM2, and BBC doesn't show any message...

for now fix this going to be impossible due to AVM2 are unsupported...

Greetings Petter!
