I tried following this through on my 3.4a image running on linux.  The 
removal and (re)installation of Balloon3D seems to work okay.  However, 
when I then try to save the image, I get a walkback:

	MessageNotUnderstood: suspendAcceleration
	AnObsoleteAdvancedB3DSceneMorph(Object)>>doesNotUnderStand:
	MessageSend>>value
	etc.

and the environment locks up, i.e. I have to kill it from a second 
shell.  I've found two instances of AdvancedB3DSceneMorph, however I 
seem unable to remove them directly -- any suggestions?

By the way, at some point -- and I can't find it now -- I thought I saw 
that Croquet was built on a modified version of the B3D engine.  If this 
is the case, what is the relationship between the refactored version of 
Balloon3D, and the graphics support underlying Croquet?  If there are 
differences, will there be convergence in the near future?

thanks,
David.
