Have you figured out a way to do this by extending the LineSeries
class, rather than replacing it?  I can copy the code in LineSeries to
my own file, and have the compiler use that, rather than the internal
one.  Then I can do the fix.  However, I cannot actually do it by
extending LineSeries, because findDataPoints references private
variables and functions (like nearly all the mx functions we'd like to
extend  :-(  ).
