I just created a blank stack in Rev 3.0.0 gm-3 and created a Classic
standalone; the process went fine. I move it from my MacBook Pro to
my G4 Cube with a USB key. The app didn't lauch under Classic (within
10.3.9). When rebooted under MacOS 9.2.2, it reported an error -199
before aborting upon launch.
Should this be considered a bug?
