  I'm curious how you did this, as ndk r3 doesn't support C++... I had to
buiuld my own toolchain to cross compile Gnash.

  Actually, I don't think you want to use AIO, as the Linux implementation
sucks. All g_io_add_watch() does is poll on the file descriptor to see if
there is activity. You could easily duplicate this by using a timer, which
then calls select().

  I haven't tried Gnash in Chrome-Lite, but it works fine in Chrome on my
desktop.
