(Get the code!)
With Conn's nspluginwrapper package (comment 39) installed Hardy became useful to me on the desktop. Flash still crashes sometimes, but doesn't take Firefox with it anymore. I still have libflashsupport installed as I started with one of the betas and for example listening to music in rhythmbox while playing sound from a Flash video works fine (although I have to note that my SoundBlaster supports hardware mixing, don't know if that did the trick).
I hope there will be official packages for i386 soon. I know you cannot fix proprietary stuff like Flash, but while restrictions to our freedom are evil, unfortunately there is no working free alternative for Flash at the moment. So restricting our freedom and crashing essential applications is even worse and this workaround seems to help a lot.
