Hi!

I played around with Pragmatic Smalltalk for a while in the last days  
and found that it still crashes in a few situations for me (Ubuntu 7  
on x86). Can you reproduce this? I couldn't figure out how to fix it.  
(Btw, what's the best way to debug these Smalltalk applications at the  
moment? In my experience, the lacking symbol information makes gdb a  
bit hard to use for it.)

The two problems are as follows:

Selectors.st:
'trullala' performSelector: ('hash' selValue).
It crashes with "edlc: Uncaught exception NSInvalidArgumentException,  
reason: Can not determine type information for -[NSConstantString ]".

Segfault.st:
'a string' class name log.
This produces a segfault in objc_msg_dispatch.

The Smalltalk files needed to reproduce it are attached.

When it's more stable, I'll try to port or reimplement SUnit (possibly  
on top of UnitKit). (It currently fails at the performSelector:/ 
selValue problem I mentioned before.) Looking at the integration of PS  
into Melodie, the language looks very, very promising to me.

Best regards,
Günther
