Exactly.

You found the bug - can you hope for more :-) ?
In Squeak 3.8 and Squeak 3.9 this is fixed, the change set
that contains the fix is '6046-503fixes'.
For a quick fix in 3.7, please replace the two expressions
(SmalltalkDictionary allCallsOn: <expr>)
with
( self systemNavigation allCallsOn: <expr>)
A word of history explains what happened here:
In earlier versions of Squeak all the stuff that is now in SystemNavigation
was in SystemDictionary. Recently SystemDictionary was split and
some protocol was moved to the new class SystemNavigation. This
change required also a revision of all senders of the moved methods
and the method Player>>removedSlotNamed: was not updated
Hope this helps,
Boris
