Details

When the flash plugin can't load libcurl.so.3, libcurl.so.4, libcurl-gnutls.so.3, and libcurl-gnutls.so.4, it crashes. In such cases, the place where the plugin would be displayed only displays black, and not the expected "plugin crashed" overlay.
I believe this is because the crash happens during NP_Initialize, or at least sometime before NPP_New. This means that we don't associate the crash with any particular instance, so the plugin-crashed notifications for instances which are going to be initialized shortly aren't sent to the chrome observers.
Fixed in 10.1.53.64
