Yes, that is one of the tricks for MAc Classic. Not sure whether still works under OSX.

Could you edit the finder flags and turned the Inited bit off and then open the folder again?

I sometimes have to stuff the standalone. Then delete the original. Then unstuff to get it all to work again. On really bad cases, I file transfer the standalone to another mac and then bring it back. This always does the trick.

As I mentioned recently on the list, deleting the standalone and then dragging it back out of the Trash does the same.

Curious. Is this a Finder bug? Is it a known issue?

It is a long-standing (as long as OS7 at least) issue, although I would not call it a bug as such. The problem is to trigger Finder into updating its desktop database for a program that is already cataloged.
