Does this mean that existing compiled code is expected to work, but an
image recompile could cause problems?
I have just fixed an instance in MCzInstaller>>#associate: Which assigns
to the block temporary.

associate: tokens
    | result |
    result _ Dictionary new.
    tokens pairsDo: [:key :value |
                    value isString ifFalse: [value _ value collect: [:ea
| self associate: ea]].
                    value = 'nil' ifTrue: [value _ ''].
                    result at: key put: value].
    ^ result

The fix is so ugly that I am beginning to think that assigning to a
block temp isn't such a bad idea after all.
