Handling functions depend on SWF tags, not on sourcecode.
Number (1) above might be transformed to DEFINEFUNCTION or DEFINEFUNCTION2
plus ACTION_VAR, ACTION_VAREQUALS or ACTION_SETVARIABLE (var v1=<something>).
Number (2) might be transformed to ACTION_INITOBJECT or ACTION_NEW (new Object)
plus ACTION_GETVAR (_global) plus ACTION_SETMEMBER (_global.logic = <smething>)

All handlers are in server/vm/ASHandlers.cpp. Mapping between functions
and tags are in the SWFHandlers constructor.
-va tells you which functions are being called.
