[Gnash] ActionScript on gnash

[Meryl Silverburgh]

I am trying to understand why gnash can't load youtube's player2.swf

When I compare the 'registerClass' output between 'gnash -v' and the
order of the flr file (the decompile player2.swf using flare), the
orders of registerClass
are different.

I expect 'SoundController' first and then 'ControlBlock', but the
output of gnash is different.  Can you please help me understand why?

Here is the output when run 'gnash' with '-v',
