I've updated the parser to (hopefully) handle syntax like,

  var a, b;
  var c:String, d:Number;
  var e:String = "red", f=1;

for defining fields.  If you're using the Ruby source, you can download
an updated parse/parser.rb from,

  http://svn.badgers-in-foil.co.uk/as2api/trunk/as2api/parse/parser.rb

If programs vaild in both MMC and MTASC (strict?) allow the syntax, I
think as2api should do a better job with it.  This syntax doesn't seem
too bogus; I just didn't spot it until now.
