I was tiring of waiting, so I fixed it myself.

Changes:
- md5sums updated
- removed all references to flashplayer.xpt (the new flash installer doesn't have this file anymore)

Download updated package for Gutsy 7.10 x86_64 here:
http://krul.nu/flashplugin-nonfree_9.0.48.0.2+really0ubuntu12_amd64.deb

Patch against original package here:
http://krul.nu/flashplugin-nonfree-9.0.48.0.2+really0ubuntu12.patch

If you need to build for another version/arch, download the patch and take these steps to make your own package:

# apt-get install build-essential cdbs
# apt-get source flashplugin-nonfree
# cd flashplugin-nonfree-*
# patch -p0 < /path/to/patch
# dpkg-buildpackage
# cd ..
# apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree
# dpkg -i flashplugin-nonfree_9.0.48.0.2+really0ubuntu*.deb

Et voila, a working flash plugin.
