Work around my issue another way, which is in some ways smoother: if the
object is a normal object from a normal class, get the class right off
instead of even doing the by-name stuff.
The appDom stuff could conceivably still be desired in the future, but
this will cover just about everything and we can always re-add this extra
business when need it.

- We use the ASC compiler, which works quite differently from compc/mxmlc. It doesn't attempt any mapping between class hierarchy and directory structure. You feed it source, that's it. This compiler is under continuous development, and the one shipped in Flex SDK 3 is buggy, so we supply our own in lib/asc.jar for the time being.
- Since much of Narya relies on classes that don't exist on Tamarin (e.g. DisplayObject), we have to isolate a specific subset of source. Right now that's done ridiculously explicitly as a list of class files, in etc/asc-files.txt. In the long run we will want to resolve this more elegantly, but there are no trivial solutions at hand.
- We have not implemented the full flash.utils.describeType() for Tamarin, but rather a subset of its functionality: one method to see if one type derives from another, and another method to extract the public variable names in an object. The environment-specific code has been isolated to com.threerings.util.env.Environment, and build.xml simply copies either Environment.as-tm or Environment.as-fp into place depending on what it's targeting.
- The ASC compilation links against lib/builtin.abc, which supplies information about core classes such as Object, Array, etc, and lib/thane.abc which is our homegrown emulation library containing e.g. flash.net.Socket and other things we need that's not part of the open-source code Adobe donated to Mozilla, but rather still in their proprietary Flash Player code.
I'm committing thane.abc and builtin.abc directly now, but they will shortly be built by the Thane project and published as maven whatnots. We could auto-publish lib/asc.jar too, but I think we may want more explicit control over how we version that.

- Import bleeding may be fixed, as I had to import a bunch of things I
should have had to earlier.
- NOW they make duplicate variable definitions bad (but without block
scoping... yay).
- Another hoopjump.

of the output.
Update code to recognize the new format and stop working around the old bugs.

InvocationRegistration had a constructor called Registration. I wonder if
that was causing the compile error with beta2.

"Still purple and bruised, sir!"
I'm working around more bugs. In theory everything should log in and join
the chat room, but the browser crashes- every single time.

- started making chat UI stuff
- upgraded SimpleMap some to use the new Dictionary class
- Lots of experimenting with attaching functions to interface implementations.
I've upgraded to the new beta of Flex and it's giving me the pain. There's
new compiler bugs and I am working blind right now.

new wacky things (and possible compiler bugs) on the way.

It's not functional, there are still large holes in the implementation.

There's a long way to go and I think I need to rethink the way streaming
will work, but this is a start. These classes all compile under
the flex environment.
