Hi

There's something very wrong with the sources or changes file.
- take a Squeak3.9g-7054 image with SqueakV39.sources
- open a brower on TraitDescription
- display the method #addSelector:withMethod:notifying:

-> oops decompiled code!

There are several of these methods. You can find them by loading the
NewCompiler and recompiling the image. The reported problemMethods are
the ones with missing source.
