Thanks to the helpful people in #freebsd-gnome on freenode IRC I got it to 
work doing the following (the diff step was in the pkg-message for 
linuxpluginwrapper, so missing that step was my own fault):

- Install www/linuxpluginwrapper
- Install www/linux-flashplugin7
- Put following in /etc/libmap.conf

   [/usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin7/libflashplayer.so]
   libpthread.so.0                 libpthread.so.2
   libdl.so.2                      pluginwrapper/flash7.so
   libz.so.1                       libz.so.3
   libm.so.6                       libm.so.4
   libc.so.6                       pluginwrapper/flash7.so

- Apply the patch at http://people.FreeBSD.org/~nork/rtld_dlsym_hack.diff 
to /usr/src/libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.c (using "patch < difffile").
- Rebuild rtld-elf:

   cd /usr/src/libexec/rtld-elf/
   make clean cleandir
   make clean cleandir
   make obj
   make depend
   make
   make install

- Link the plugin:

   ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin7/libflashplayer.so 
/usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins/
