Smalltalk appendChangesTo: 'SqueakV44.sources'
Would shrink the image a couple of M, but fails with Error: Unmatched
string quote. (It failed when I tried to use it on 4.3 as well. Which is
why Squeak 4.3 did not have a SqueakV43.sources)
Smalltalk unloadAllKnownPackages
in the Future Directions welcome workspace fails with Error: Unmatched
string quote. Both of those problems relate to the Scanner.
