I can reproduce the issue with a Cog on Ubuntu. There's no modal
dialog. If I cmd-., I can see that MCMethodDefinitionTest is running.
It looks like it's looping forever in MCMockPackageInfo >>
#changeRecordsForMethod:do:'s

    [position notNil & file notNil]
        whileTrue:
        [file position: (0 max: position-150).  "Skip back to before
the preamble"
        [file position < (position-1)]  "then pick it up from the front"
            whileTrue: [chunk := file nextChunk].

Thoughts?
