Does anyone know of any way of getting around the P8 (or is it basic.
system) -- save over old file bug other than rebooting GSOS?  Is there
any short piece of code one could run after exiting P8 that would undo
whatever damage is done?  (Just to make it clear:  this is the bug that
makes the file save dialogue not work properly when you are trying to
save over an existing file and you've run a ProDos8 program -- or maybe
it takes a Basic.system program -- between when you booted GSOS and you
are trying the save.)
