Reminds of a bug I had (years back) in the Windows VM - I assumed that the
size of Display's bits is always up-to-date to the OS window extent (which
isn't always true since it takes a little for Squeak to recognize that the
display extent has changed) which led to crashes very much like you're
seeing.
Interestingly, this behavior would only be exposed if you invoke
#fullscreenMode: manually (the way you did) as the "regular" methods of
going fullscreen (through menu or the navbar) will immediately issue a
Display restore afterwards - bringing the Display's size back to sync with
the os window extent. Might be worthwhile to check out.
Cheers,
