I tried something like that, but there are options like: -source-path=3D
with a hyphen in the option and a couple that begin with double hyphens. I
started to switch over to String.split(" -") to break apart on the
space+dash but then ran into this mysterious problem of mxmlc not liking
the arguments it was given, even though, as far as I can tell, it was
getting the same ones in the same order. Obviously that wasn't the case,
but had trouble tracking it down, so it is on hold for now while we get
the tests to run, unless someone else wants to take a stab at it.
