That's for 7.2.  linux_base-f10 is the default for 8.0 (and presumably 
-CURRENT, although the line between STABLE and CURRENT is getting a 
little blurred).

The Handbook describes different procedures for installing Flash for 7 
versus 8:

They were installed automatically here.

linux-f10-atk-1.24.0 was installed automatically here.

So I would suggest: Remove "OVERRIDE" entries from make.conf, update 
ports, deinstall/install linux_base-f10, linux-f10-flashpluginwrapper10, 
nspluginwrapper.  As root, create the link as in the Handbook.  As user, 
run nspluginwrapper -a -i.

It works here.(TM)
