Yes, that's what tripped me up in the past.  My stacks have the 
Ask/Answer already in them but they've been edited.  I actually have 
them named xAsk, xAnswer and xExecution Error and rename them on 
standalone launch.  Newer projects were done differently and don't 
even use Ask/Answer anymore because of the Rev issue but I really 
didn't want to go back and redo older projects.  They already have a 
lengthy update to-do list :-)

In looking thru the substacks I also see File Selector, Moved Icons, 
libUrl and Cursors, none of which I've edited so they could be 
removed and put back in on build.  I remember it mentioning something 
being already loaded prior to the error window.  I think it was File 
Selector.  Let me try removing it (them) and retesting the Rev 
builder...
