I don't know why it wouldn't be valid or corrupt but... something is weird. What I settled on is loading the SWF with URLLoader and then using loadBytes on the ByteArray. I still have to wait a half a second or so after calling loadBytes before the classes are available but at least the loading of the SWF is somewhat normal.
