Supress Standalone Builder Warnings

I get it now. The way I work around this is to close all stacks and remove 
from memory (or just relaunch LC,) turn off messages in the toolbar, and 
open the splash stack. That prevents the other stacks from opening. Build 
the standalone and you shouldn't have any trouble, except for remembering 
to do the dance.
