Replying to my own post...I guess I am seeing this same bug that's a
subject of another thread:
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FLEXDMV-1695
My way of triggering it is slightly different but the same code
appears to be causing it.
I spose I'll try the workaround listed there.

Hello
I have a chart which works fine in a normal MXML component, but when I
try to turn it into a module I get this when trying to load it:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null

My guess is that this is somehow related to the way the chart is now
instantiated and that I need to somehow delay whatever Flex is trying
to do that causes this crash.
Anyone have any clues as to what's going wrong here?
TIA
