The macintosh 3.0Alpha14MT VM, May 9th 2001
This VM was built with the base  3.x image at change set #3987.

ftp://st.cs.uiuc.edu/Smalltalk/Squeak/3.0/mac/

What has been fixed/changed.
v3.0.14 at change set #3987

(Note plugin goes to 3.0.17)

1) sqMacDirectory.c. The pathlookup would handle the case of 
foo:bar::do incorrectly by ignoring the :: path redirection. This has 
been fixed. However a path lookup will not work if it contains :: and 
an aliased directory in the middle of the path.

2) sqMacSecurity.c. The pathname for the untrustedUserDirectory was 
built incorrectly, and the bug mentioned above in sqMacDirectory.c 
usually kept this from being noticed.

3) sqMacWindow.c  we added some logic to do the delay for 
primitiveRelinquishProcessor, but found it had an large effect on a 
freecell benchmark. I suspect on a Morpic step wait there is nothing 
to do, so primitiveRelinquishProcessor gets called which then affects 
response time. So for now we revert to the 3.0.11 behavior, good 
performance and 100% CPU usage!

4) GetAttribute 1004 returns returns interpreterVersion; which is for example
"Squeak3.1alpha of 6 February 2001 [latest update: #3987]"

5) When in full screen mode we now attempt to disable resizing, 
zooming, or moving the window. The window borders are hidden, but in 
the past it was feasible to grab an edge and alter it, thus confusing 
the VM.

6) Worked on Carbonizing the browser plugin

7) 3977 & 3978 FloatArray fixes. Makes float arrays go through a new 
(and working) version of #primitiveHash

8) Fixed problem with accidental mouse clicks being triggered from 
pulldown menus on application switching.
