I was assuming that it was a ming 0.3 bug because it didn't happen with ming 0.4 
(all that I changed was one configure argument pointing to the different 
ming-config).

My question is whether it's worth working around that in gnash, since most 
distros don't provide a package for the 0.4.0betas. (My guess is it's not; most 
people won't be running make check anyway and the ones that will will probably 
want the up to date ming)
