I was wondering about this as well. Couldn't a nefarious Tor user install some sort of outgoing packet-cleaner, which would spoof their outgoing I.P. address for all packets unrelated to Tor?
I.e: because the flash exploit didn't establish two-way clearnet communication with the target computer, how can they prove that the outgoing clearnet I.P. was not spoofed?
EDIT: Nevermind, I was assuming too much about the operation of the exploit. More details, for those who are interested, can be found here:

I'd assume that the flash snippet establishes a TCP connection, so it has to complete a handshake first. Those are fairly hard to spoof.
