To skirt this issue, I use AMFPHP proxy classes on my swf's host server to talk to other servers or snap up RSS files. Not sure about filesystem stuff though. It seems like that would be a security issue on the backend as well as the front!
Feel free to mail me offlist if you want to check out one of the PHP proxy classes.
