Marc,

The behaviour is the same (Squeak "hangs" on the save) with or without the 
"-memory 96m" switch:

cd $HOME/dev/smalltalk/squeak/3.7;squeak Squeak3.7b-5967.image
cd $HOME/dev/smalltalk/squeak/3.7;squeak -memory 96m Squeak3.7b-5967.image

The VM version:

mzimmermann at home-server:~> squeak -version
3.7b-5 #2 Tue Apr  6 20:38:14 CEST 2004 gcc egcs-2.91.66
Squeak3.7beta of '1 April 2004' [latest update: #5868]
Linux pingu.inria.fr 2.2.19-6.2.7 #1 Thu Jun 14 07:51:10 EDT 2001 i686
default plugin location: /usr/lib/squeak/3.7b-5/*.so

Please let me know if I can provide more info, try something else,  and/or try 
a different VM or image (although, I do not know enough on how to "export" 
that project to duplicate in a new image - i tried to create a similar 
project and the "Save Project onFile" works correctly.).

It's not all that importand for me to save this project, but if it helps debug 
something that may be a bug, I am available to experiment with it,

Milan
