Mac Classic Apps Run Under OS X but Not On Native Classic

[Sannyasin Sivakatirswami]

Reporting in on this... My splash engine -- standalone built with 2.2.1 
(on OSX) and copied to CD and then copied to an old eMac PPC running 
9.2, failed. So, its' more than .sit compression issues.

I'll bugZilla this:

Dan, any progress on your end? I've got 2 users standing by... at this 
point I'm telling them to get the dream machine for home computing 
that's about to arrive: G5 iMac. But not everyone has deep pockets.
