Fixed it. Wireshark gave me the clue that I needed, I found an error 
message on the wire.

The back end declares an exchange as auto delete = true. The as3 front
end library is hard coded to declare the exchange as auto delete =
false. It looks like this worked fine on previous versions of rabbitmq, 
but newer servers throw an error.

I changed my back end to declare the exchange as auto delete = false and 
it works again now.

Thanks for your help everyone,

Tim.
