Hi Daniel--

	You can catch the error in Squeak, by running the system with the 
interpreter simulator. See http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/2465 for 
basic usage. Instead of a segfault, you'll (hopefully) get a normal 
debugger in a host Squeak system, at which point you could manipulate 
the subject object memory by hand (including making a new snapshot). 
That's the best way to "edit" an image, in my opinion.

	It's pretty delicate brain surgery, though, so hopefully you'll find a 
way to get your system to start normally. (The stack you quoted didn't 
ring any bells for me.)
