I also seem to recall an Apache thing, hold on, ... yes, http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Module_for_Apache_and_IIS <http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Module_for_Apache_and_IIS>
See if that is what you are looking for.

Alternatively, you can use LCDS to 'compile on the fly' like a jsp, php, or cfm does. Flex 1.5 and earlier worked this way. It is *horribly* slow on first request though. Its called web-tier-compiler IIRC. Heck of a lot of cash to outlay just for this when you can compile in your standard build process.
