In my experience, the Flash IDE debbuger is and has been itself full of bugs and close to useless. I desisted using it a long time ago. When you have an app of medium complexity (and sometimes even with really simple stuff), 7 out of 10 times it will hang or crash. And I don't think Adobe will put much effort in improving it, since Flash is considered a designers' tool and designers generally don't use a debugger. Flex builder's debugger in other hand is a decent tool.
Sorry for the rant, I know it doesn't add much, but I always regreted that Flash had such a crapy debugger.
