Actually, I'll repost this to the list, in the hopes of soliciting
more pointers.

Oops, that was it. I feel a bit dumb now!
Do you have any suggestions on how to go about debugging VM hacks?
While I'm a pretty proficient Smalltalker, I'm a complete Squeak newbie.
The Blue Book only goes so far... Can I start this VM in a different
window, rather than have it write-over my normal image?
Or do you know of any pointers to such information?
Thanks for your help, Peter.
