[haXe] AS3 cannot handle properties?

[Cons T Åhs]

Hi,
when generating as3 from haXe I see the following.

haXe source:
    public var x(getX, setX): String;
     private function getX() {
	return "x: " + x;
     }
     private function setX(s: String) {
	x = StringTools.trim(s);
	return s;
     }

Generated as3 code:
		public var x : String;
		public function getX() : String {
			return "x: " + this.x;
		}
		public function setX(s : String) : String {
			this.x = StringTools.trim(s);
			return s;
		}

x has become a simple field, so accessing x will just return the  
value without the prefix generated by getX().  Is this a bug in haXe - 
 > as3 or a bug in as3, ie, there is no corresponding construct in  
as3?  Easy to workaround by using getX() and setX(), but properties  
are very neat.
