Yeah.  To restate the question, is it finally compatible with current
compiler and libraries, or does it still need the old compiler and
libraries, i.e. not very interesting.  I have Flash with Phoenix and
nothing crashes, but that's still the binary version from moz that uses
the old compiler/libraries.

That's the major objection I have to proprietary binary distributions. 
They don't keep up.
