You emerge it. If it doesn't work, then it's not because it's designed
not to work, but because of some problem, obviously. In that case, you
might want to file a bug about it (after making sure you tried with a
clean firefox profile first).
For reference, my system is AMD64, with
www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.5.3-r1, and
www-plugins/adobe-flash-10.0.32.18 [64bit multilib -32bit] and it works
without problems.
