The millions of designers and developers that have bought versions 1-4
of the Creative Suite and individual products (like Dreamweaver or
Photoshop) over the last years, maybe?  Flash-to-iPhone cross-
compilation is a new feature in CS 5, and it seems that feature won't
work starting with iPhone OS 4 in the summer (it's seems still fine
for now on iPhone OS 3.1).

If the iPhone OS 4 really analyzes an app, then this seems more like
profiling to me, which you can only do at runtime.  So the static code
analysis you suggested won't work - plus at about 10,000 app
submissions a week, that would be a hell of a lot of data to push out
to each iPhone OS device (daily? weekly?).  Remember, there's no
"Windows Update weekly patch day" on iPhone OS.  ;-)
