Tiger breaks hyperCard?

[Dan Shafer]

I can't say what the general case might be, but I *can* report that I  
merely copied an old System Folder from a Classic install on OS X  
10.3 to my Tiger drive after installation and it seems to work fine.  
I don't use it often and I surely don't push it around much, but it  
hasn't crashed, broken, complained or otherwise caused a fuss.
