That is true...  The Flash Player is pre-compiled.  However, it is at
least up to date.  The process is the same as it once was during
Macromedia's reign.

Basically, all the installer does is copy the flashplayer.so file into
your personal Mozilla plugins directory (if run as a user) or the
system-wide plugin directory (if run as root).

Is flash open now?  In the past all you could do was d/l the file from
Macromedia and install it.  I have no clue to the process now that Adobe
 has it.  If it's along the lines of reader it's like above.  Download
it, read the README or INSTALL file and thats that.  There is nothing to
compile.
