That's a bug in squeak-dev. Damien decided to include the
totally unstable OB-Tools package in squeak-dev-3.10, and it
does the wrong thing when self notify: is sent. It is supposed
to show a dialog with this text:


You are about to load new versions of the following packages
that have unsaved changes in the image.  If you continue, you
will lose these changes.

  Kernel-Extensions


To me, this is yet another reason you shouldn't use damien's
images.

So, email it to damien, and tell him to get OB-Tools out of
squeak-dev. Or, just don't use squeak-dev-beta. It is very
unstable.
