Yes, sorry for bothering you with this, it's likely that I'm linking
against the 1.2 version instead (will check).

Sure, but the dox say it won't be portable, and we want gnash
to be portable. BTW, I realized we would still be much simpler
to know the URL in the standalone executable, due to the fact
that we'll also need to implement an internal loader (yes, could
be done with the stream-based NP interface and proxying all
the traffic to the pipe, but starts to sound pretty complex).
