I've just tried this with VMMaker.oscog-eem.1370/r3386 VMs in an updated
trunk Squeak 4.5 (non Spur) image and a Spur image and see nothing wrong.
Are you not missing something from the expression?  I can't see how the
above would produce a cannot return; the mehtod returnds via the ^-return
in the block.  But that's fine, and should be equivalent to [^true] value.
