I ran the following in Squeak 5.3:

When the Transcript window fills up, 'Message not understood' and 'Assertion failure' appear. I'm wondering is this a bug? Thanks. Jaromir

It certainly does appear to be a bug.
We had some discussion about it not so long ago; you can't use the Transcript to log bugs from Seaside very well, for example. Background processes, mutexs, that sort of thing. IIRC Levente offered an explanation?
