[Extendflash] Using the JSFL FLFile.write and UTF8

That's what I thought to remember. This trick practically saved my neck in a huge project about two years ago when facing problems that where pretty similar to what you have to work around now.

Oh, and I was actually wrong in blaming Flash MX, as that release already used utf8 encoded source files - the real culprit was the now deceased Screenweaver not being able to save utf8 files.

cheers,
