>Description:
There is an LP64 bug in x11/kdebase3's nspluginviewer on amd64 (and no
doubt all other LP64 platforms) which causes a SEGV on startup.

The problem is caused by truncation of a 64-bit long into an int variable.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install KDE3 and nspluginwrapper. Access a website with Flash content.
Observe KDE crash popup.
>Fix:
The following patch to x11/kdebase3 fixes the problem (might be a good
idea to forward it upstream too):
