Is it possible to monkey-patch trace() to substitute your own version, and set 
a breakpoint in it?

Hey Chris,

This may be a long shot, but how about using a an swf decompiler? I remember 
ising Trillix awhile back and was very impressed by the amount of detail 
provided in the diagnostics - It may pinpoint the source of your trace 
statement...

Cheers!
