That makes sense, but I'm still confused, because both my little
release script and ReleaseBuilder-fbs.85 set useOldNetwork to true.

But NetNameResolver class >> #initiaize has "Smalltalk
addToStartUpList: self", so could actually set useOldNetwork BACK to
false even though the image was saved with value true?

I have just realised another problem, which is that I've saved this
image from a Cog VM.
