2 other options:

Just have one event handler per button.

or use an anonymous function

myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(){doSomething(1);});

private function doSomething(index:int):void
{
    trace(index);
}

(I havent tested the code above, so there might be some syntax errors).

Personally, I would always have one event listener per button as I feel it make it a little easier to read the code.

Hey - the anon function seems to be the way that resembles what I used to do. The only reason I do not have a unique one per button is say for example I have 25 buttons and I loop through to create the instances and the event listeners - then have a function that performs the same actions (with a different index number). Then I only have to write out 1 function for the 25 button instances. Unless there is a way to do it with a loop, I would then have to write out 25 unique functions to handle the button events - correct? That is if I was going to do it your preferred way with unique button functions....
