Right conclusion, wrong reason. It is important to some of us Squesk users.
The real reason to freeze the version is that the people who make new
versions of ob and rb are not testing in Squeak, only in Pharo. So,
they will keep breaking the Squeak build unless we ensure that we only
update to a new version of ob after we have tested it.
