How to include a SWC using custom Console?

Question

Currently, it appears as if it is not possible to include an external SWC for use in a custom Console implementation.
For instance, assume that I have a SWC: Foo.swc that contains the class
com.test::Foo
I also have a custom com.adobe.flascc.Console implementation which imports and uses com.test.Foo from the Foo.swc library.
I've managed to get my SWF to compile without a problem, but I get the following run-time error:
VerifyError: Error #1014: Class com.test::Foo could not be found.
Here's how I've setup the compile:
CCC:=$(FLASCC)/usr/bin/g++
Console.abc:
          $(ASC) -merge -md -abcfuture -AS3 -optimize -strict \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/builtin.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/playerglobal.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/BinaryData.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/ISpecialFile.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/IBackingStore.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/IVFS.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/InMemoryBackingStore.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/PlayerKernel.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/CModule.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/C_Run.abc) \
                    -li $(call nativepath,./aslibs/Foo.swc) \
                    -le $(call nativepath,./aslibs/framework.swc) \
                        Console.as -outdir . -out Console
test.swf: Console.abc
          $(CCC) -jvmopt=$(JVMARGS) -Wall -g -O0 -fno-exceptions -o test.swf \
                    main.cpp \
                    -lAS3++ \
                    -fllvm-llc-opt=-ascopt=-li \
                    -fllvm-llc-opt=-ascopt=$(call nativepath,./aslibs/Foo.swc) \
                    -fllvm-llc-opt=-ascopt=-le \
                    -fllvm-llc-opt=-ascopt=$(call nativepath,./aslibs/framework.swc) \
                    -symbol-abc=Console.abc \
                    -emit-swf \
                    -swf-size=800x600
I've also attempted adding -no-swf-preloader assuming that the problem was linkage in the first frame, but this did not work either.
If I only use asc2.jar to generate a SWF (using the -li and -le options), it works, but I need access to the libraries via flascc Console.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the response and the suggested work-around! This solution worked exactly as you described and was precisely the result I was looking for.
--- Some Follow Up Ranting and Questions ---
Was the behavior I mentioned in my previous post a bug? It seems like the issue may be due to the following:
* Compiling .as to .abc referencing a swc will simply refer to the contents of the swc to resolve external references and there's nothing in the abc itself referring to the external library (Could be way off here).
* Compiling .as to .swf will resolve fully.
* Because we compile Console to abc first, we lose the ability to resolve external references before going to SWF.
If the above statements are correct, then -li and -le behave identically when compiling to .abc, and the behavior mentioned in my previous post would make sense.
What is strange to me is that the ASC provides a way to compile to .abc but no way to link .abc and output a swf. Perhaps it's because of the loss of data that occurs (full resolution tracks dependencies in memory).
I'm not sure that what I'm claiming is even remotely close to the truth, but it seems accurate based on my observations. If anyone knows for sure, please feel free to set me straight.
