- net-www/netscape-flash-9.0.48.0 (masked by: package.mask)

I emerged netscape-flash-9.0.48.0 before it was masked.  I assume that
emerge got the correct tarball, else it would have been caught by the
checksum checking, and because about:plugins in Firefox says 
"File name: libflashplayer.so Shockwave Flash 9.0 r48".

I guess I'm seeking reassurance that my understanding is correct, that
I have the version with the vulnerability fixed.
