It can raise a warning if a method is invoked which is not provided:

 WARNING: call_method can't find method makeDefaultConstructor for object 
N5gnash16object_as_objectE (0x84869a8)
 (assuming makeDefaultConstructor is supposed to exist)

It can tell you that the method is not implemented if it knows about it.

 WARNING: MovieClip._focusrect setting is unsupported

It can think you made something wrong:

 ACTIONSCRIPT ERROR: Invalid call to ASSetPropFlags: object argument is not an 
object: undefined

Or other unexpected behaviours.... If you found something please let us know.
Remember to run with -v and make sure you set these in your .gnashrc:

 # Be verbose about malformed SWF
 set MalformedSWFVerbosity true

 # Be verbose about AS coding errors
 set ASCodingErrorsVerbosity true
