Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run: <mx:Image id="img" source="http://server.arcgisonline.com/crossdomain.xml" ioError="trace(event)"/>

Actual Results:
Nothing is visible and no ioError occurs.

Expected Results:
ioError should be thrown and the broken image skin should be shown.

Workaround (if any):
None.

It seems to maybe be a problem with the Loader not throwing an ioError if the content is xml. I do get an error if I try to load html like http://www.google.com/. I'm trying to load a crossdomain.xml file just as a demonstration of the problem. Here's the real url I'd like to get an ioError for:
