Thanks for the suggestion. I reduced BasicLookAndFeel uiDefaults to this:
  "RadioButtonUI", org.aswing.plaf.basic.BasicRadioButtonUI,
  "SliderUI", org.aswing.plaf.basic.BasicSliderUI,
  "PanelUI", org.aswing.plaf.basic.BasicPanelUI,
  "LabelUI",org.aswing.plaf.basic.BasicLabelUI

and ASWingLookAndFeel to this:
  "RadioButtonUI", org.aswing.plaf.asw.ASWingRadioButtonUI,
  "PanelUI", org.aswing.plaf.asw.ASWingPanelUI

That reduced the swf from 205,296 to 98,802 bytes. Still a bit heavy,
but much better. Everything still works.  (Incidentally emptying both
arrays takes it to 89,425 bytes, so I suspect there is still some excess
baggage somewhere.)

Thanks, that was just what I needed. MCPanel has no background, and the
setBackground/setOpaque() functions didn't do anything:
  var panel:MCPanel=new MCPanel(control_panel,200,Stage.height);
  panel.setBackground(new ASColor(0xFFFFFF,100));
  panel.setOpaque(true);

Is that a feature or a bug? It was easy enough to draw my own background
of course.
