Failed on several more attempts this a.m.

Instead tried to reload from a virgin 2.4c image, and all went well. 
One fillip, however:

When I tried to load a few fileOut's from my then-pending 2.5 image, 
ClassBehavior classComment:stamp: whined with a Message Not 
Understood classComment: as variable "organization" was nil.

Didn't know much about this, so I tried commenting out the line 
indicated below, and proceeded.  All went well.  After uncommenting 
the line, a subsequent read of the fileOut succeeded.  Go figure.

Rather than offering the obvious fix of testing for nil organization 
in the offending line, I think its best to defer to the clueful to 
figure what is going on here.

classComment: aString stamp: aStamp
	"Store the comment, aString or Text or RemoteString, 
associated with the class we are organizing.  Empty string gets 
stored only if had a non-empty one before."

	| ptr header file oldCommentRemoteStr |
	(aString isKindOf: RemoteString) ifTrue: [^ organization 
classComment: aString].
	oldCommentRemoteStr _ organization commentRemoteStr.  <---- 
**** COMMENTED THIS OUT
	(aString size = 0) & (oldCommentRemoteStr == nil) ifTrue: [^ 
organization classComment: nil].
  . . .
