I see the same thing -- mostly it manifests as "I notice my computer seems weirdly slow, and then discover it's because I have a bunch of gnash processes chewing up resources". So all I know is that it was spawned by some web page that I visited recently, that had a plugin buried in it somewhere, and no guarantee that the web page is still around, or that I ever scrolled down far enough into it that the plugin was even visible on my screen, even assuming I would notice the little black box it made...

It's not really clear where one would start debugging. I guess putting the URL into argv[1] so it was visible in ps might help.
