Obviously, this method is weak!
Main thing is to check mantis http://bugs.squeak.org/
If not reported, please open a bug report.
If you have time, create a SUnit TestCase, file it out and upload test
on bug report.
Even better, create and upload a patch.
This time, it is already there http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=5640
If the patch rocks, you review it carefully, and propose it as candidate
for image integration at http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5934
Cheers
