That's not it. The flash binary uses SSE2 instructions without
checking for their presence, which causes bad things on systems
without SSE2. The purpose of the 'sse2check' flag was to die if the
system doesn't have SSE2 and print a message telling the user to use
an older version of flash.

The relevant bug is https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=410547
