This is actually how it works, at least on Unix:

    $ mkdir empty
    $ cd empty/
    $ ls
    $ type Squeak
    Squeak is hashed (/b3/home/lex/bin/Squeak)   
    $ Squeak /home/lex/squeak/lex.image


There is no warning about missing changes files, so it seems okay (I
don't know how to check for what exact changes file is being used).


I will point out, though, that we had some trouble here with Windows
NT sometimes changing long filenames into mangled 8.3 filenames.
Something to do with SMB filesystems perhaps.  We ended up having
people copy things over to a local drive and running from there.  Are
you running off a network drive?
