[osflash] [MTASC] -trace to call the original

[Niels Wolf]

I havent tested it now, but from what I remember of as2, is that you can
overload trace:

$trace = trace;

function trace(message:String,useOldTrace:Boolean):Void{
    if(useOldTrace)
        $trace(message);
    else
        myTraceAlternative.log(message);
}

I forgot where functions live in AS2, I dont think it was the _global
namespace.. But where ever trace is defined you might want to overload it..
So if it would be _global.trace (theoretically speaking), you would want to
do 

_global.$trace = _global.trace;
_global.trace = myOverloadFunk;
