This is a problem I posted about earlier - older versions of Monticello 
are broken by the most recent batch of updates because #isMetaClass was 
replaced by #isMeta in PseudoClass.  As I said earlier, the simplest 
way to fix this is to add

isMetaClass
   ^ self isMeta

to PseudoClass.

If you start with a fresh 3.7a image and install the latest version of 
Monticello you won't run into this problem.

It occurs to me that it might be useful to add an #unloadMonticello 
option to MCInstaller so that in cases like this that make normal 
upgrades difficult (and some are much worse than this), you could 
completely dump MC from an image and then bring in a new version...
