Your subject mentions a bug in 3.1alpha... generally the version of the 
image is more important than the version of the VM you're running.  In 
other words, if you have a 3.0 image, you can consider yourself running 
Squeak 3.0.  (The image is where the vast majority of (non-crashing) 
bugs will occur. :) )

With the VM, usually the only important thing is that your VM version 
should be the same as or more recent than the image version. (not 
earlier)

Yep!  Thanks for the report.  (Well, except you should include [BUG] in 
the subject... it looks like you figured that out in your other report.  
There are more details on how to report bugs/fixes in the Squeak FAQ on 
the Swiki...)
