Thanks David (and Chris), but you missed Collections-monty.714.mcz when copying the other two to the trunk, which is causing the problem. It's a 3 part fix:

1) define correctly spelled versions of the extensions directly on String and ByteString (Collections-monty.714.mcz)

2) change all senders in MOFile to the correctly spelled versions (System-monty.908.mcz)

3) change all senders in XML-Parser to the correctly spelled versions, and for backwards compatibility, leave the wrongly spelled extensions but have them just forward to the new ones (XML-Paresr-monty.40.mcz)

If MOFile is going to keep using these messages, besides correct spelling they should be defined directly on String and ByteString and not be XML-Parser extensions, otherwise XML-Parser can't be removed or replaced without breaking MOFile and preventing the installation of some packages.
