Actually, it only worked for me, when I used attachMovie()!:
Object.registerClass( "TestSymb", TestView );
//should have seen TestView() trace out twice, as I've also dragged an
//instance of "TestSymb" onto the stage,
//BUT only saw one trace
this.attachMovie( "TestSymb", "tv", 0 );
//class file:
class TestView extends MovieClip {
function TestView() {
trace( "TEstView()" );
}
}

it does work in flash 8.
as for clips on the stage, it does work, you just have to give the
clip a linkage ID in the library first, and use that linkage to
register the class to it.
