Attachment: Raises minimum permitted version to 10.3.183.10 on Intel

http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb11-26.html reports another Flash 0-day, affecting all versions older than 10.3.183.7 and suggesting users upgrade to 10.3.183.10.

Per bug 662666 comment 15 et seq, I believe this meets our criteria for raising the minimum version; the attached patch does so.  (Can I get a blanket-sr for doing this for 0-days in the future, at least as long as Flash 10.3 is supported and we don't need new code to handle Flash 11 being 10.6+ only?)

sr=smorgan, now and forever. You Have The Power!

(Maybe we should just save ourselves the time, and blacklist everything below 11 or 12? ;) )
