OK, I followed Ken's suggestion, saying
•	set the externals of this stack to "components/global 
environment/ext.dll"
followed by saving, quitting, reopening the stack, and confirming that
•	put the externals of this stack
elicited the reply
•	components/global environment/ext.dll

But then when I tried
•	ext_loadFont "/Users/jerry/Desktop/KillerStumps.ttf"
I received the familiar "can't find handler" error message.

Chris, I had a question about the following portion of your note:

because when I say
•	answer the externalCommands of this stack

I just get empty (and indeed "the externalCommands of this stack is 
empty" returns "true").  Your note suggests that when you do this you 
get a different result.  Is that right?
