I have seen this once before, but not with Squeak. Someone was trying
to launch software that I had written. Each time he tried, he
received a similar message. We finally decided that the problem was
that the application had been compressed with StuffIt. There seemed
to be an incompatibility between StuffIt and his G3. I think we fixed
it by trashing the StuffIt preference file and then uncompressing the
file again. (It's been a couple of months, but I think that's right.)
Using Compact Pro instead of StuffIt also worked.
