Welcome to the club.
I used the latest squeaksource version for sophieproject (lots and lots 
of packages and versions) that also runs on the esug server (I think) 
and added all your patches.
It seems to be really stable, so your patches seem to work their magic :-)

The only thing that makes problems is that it screws up the web 
connection (see previous postings).

And we use image storage, which sucks big time as we already ran into 
the problem that on a rare bug the image got saved with the debugger 
open and caused problems. We don't have the resources right now to try 
out the Magma backend Bert did a while ago.
