I have an implemention of try/catch/finally that matches what the Adobe
compiler produces.  However, I cannot produce any code that fires
an exception and I have not yet implemented 'throw'.  Is there a
way to get an exception - I've tried division by zero, opening nonexistent files, etc. Throw shouldn't be difficult to implement - is it useful to have
try/catch that only responds to throw?

This is fairly important - it would be great to have exceptions in SWF!

I assume there is some support for exceptions in SWF
for use in the future.  I bet it's not too hard to do.

What do you think about at least permitting try/catch in swf for now, even if we just pass the try block through as a block, ignore any catch and pass through any finally. It's lame, but it would let us unify a bunch of the LFC code base.

Then when we have time, we can actually implement the correct code generation for it...
