*** Smalltalk/V Mac version 1.1; MacOS 6.05 ***

On my Mac SE/30 at work and my Mac+ at home, both of the Float
instance methods "exponent" and "significand" cause 'Float invalid
operation' walkbacks to appear. These are both primitive methods.

The last "bug" I found turned out to be some "junk methods" left in
for "compatibility" with ST/V 286. However, the methods above do not
seem like they should fall in this category.

Anyone know of a fix?
Is a complete bug list for ST/V Mac available anywhere?

Thanks in advance, Mark
