Thanks John!

A copy of the 3.8.12b5 VM for the Macintosh that includes an
OpenAL framework compiled from the latest OpenAL development
branch can be found at

http://hedgehog.software.umn.edu/croquet/Hedgehog/install/ 
Squeak3.8.12beta5UwithOpenAL.zip

This fixes a problem where Croquet worlds with OpenAL sounds
crash intermittently on Intel-flavored Macs, but work everywhere
else. The crash seems to be caused by a bug in the OpenAL libraries
that Apple is currently shipping with MacOS. We are not the only
ones seeing this problem, see
