The Flex Builder 2 for Mac actually has a newer version of the Flex 2 SDK that requires you to explicitly import things instead of calling them by their classpath. There are a number of other changes as well, I can't remember where I saw a list of them but there is one out there.
Hopefully Adobe will release the latest Intel Mac debug player soon, I find the one that came with the Mac beta extremely buggy (freezes Safari, Firefox, often ignores keystrokes, etc).
