Not knowing anything about the particular swf you are using, I wonder if you could try loading it dynamically, i.e., use "http:" as a prefix on the file name, and the compiler will defer loading it until runtime. Maybe something in it is choking the compiler, which tries to parse it and then re-emit it into the compiled binary for the app. Runtime loading, by contrast, uses Flash player's loadMovie(), and should be less picky.
