- The resources in HyperCard 2.0 were all renumbered (except for the ICONs) 
- to be sequential and within the range assigned to applications. 
- Unfortunately the resource numbers for strings (STR#) sometimes conflict 
- with STR# resources in stacks (used by XCMDs). Since we use strings from 
- the STR# resources to "fill in blanks" in the dialogs, you can get some 
- pretty strange results if we're using someone else's STR# resource.

That's what happened alright. Renumbering the XCMD STR# solved the problem.
