[Vm-dev] Object>>#at:put: reports improper store when everything
seems fine

Hi,
I just stumble upon this: Object>>#at:put: calls <primitive:61>. If that
fails, the following lines read
index isInteger ifTrue:
[self class isVariable
ifTrue: [(index >= 1 and: [index <= self size])
ifTrue: [self errorImproperStore]
Why is it an improper store if the index is an integer, the receiver
class is variable, and the index is within bounds? Someone please
enlighten me...
(If this is merely reporting "there was an error in the primitive
although everything's alright", then I feel the message should be
something other than "Improper store into indexable object".)
Thanks,
André
