That was it! It no longer crashes when using -notimer. So I'm guessing 
that there IS a timer being set up in the Intersystems ODBC driver. 
Unfortunately it appears that the timer for Squeak is rather important: 
It's really running slowly now. I guess I need to read around the option 
and find out precisely what it means. Have you got any suggestions for 
other ways to get around this (other than getting Intersystems to 
re-write their driver)?

Thanks very much for your help, this problem has been around for quite a 
while and I was starting to dispair of ever finding the solution.
