   Script blocks in MXML are handled a bit differently than regular AS transpiling.  In regular AS, there is a ClassNode in the AST and the AST walk eventually gets down to functions with local functions.  In MXML ScriptBlocks there is no ClassNode in the AST and a ClassNode and/or ClassDefinition is assigned to the Emitter.  My guess is that the knowledge of local functions might be associated with something like a ClassNode but that association is invalid or broken when walking a Script block so the local function collection is lost to the code that needs it.
