Installing the previous version of flash-plugin restores the functionality.
It appears to be a Glib2 problem, this version was apparently compiled
against another glib2. It wants  libgio-2.0.so. Copying the so  from
/usr/lib/vmware to /usr/lib64/ stopped it's complaining but flash still
didn't work.

Another good reason to upgrade the remaining Centos 5.11 boxes to
rhel/centos 7.1.
