I fixed that problem in an other manner:

I did aptitude download libflashsupport on a 32bit system and copied the
deb package to my 64bit system.

Then created a directory under /usr/local/src. In my case I called it
libflashsupport-i386

Then:

dpkg -x libflashsupport_1.9-0ubuntu2_i386.deb
/usr/local/src/libflashsupport-i386

/usr/local/src/libflashsupport-i386/usr/lib:
ldd libflashsupport.so
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xf7f6d000)

        libXdmcp.so.6 => /usr/lib32/libXdmcp.so.6 (0xf7b0c000)

looked ok for me.

cd /usr/lib32/
ln -s /usr/local/src/libflashsupport-i386/usr/lib/libflashsupport.so
ldconfig

Started firefox and played a youtube video. While playing:

lsof | grep libflashsupport
npviewer. 14357  croessner  mem       REG              253,0    10924    
2901271 /usr/local/src/libflashsupport-i386/usr/lib/libflashsupport.so

So, as you can see it is working and you do not need to compile or
replace the 64bit package. But it was really great to have a
lib32flahsupport package for intrepid. This is a sad solution to compile
or to do my trick. Just only advanced users will get this to work. So
please a word to the current package maintainer: Can you please create
the required package? I would do this, if I knew more about debian
packaging.
