Unfortunately, my advice won't help you with your major problem, but I think 
you need the POOLFIX version which has been adapted by Claus Brod and 
implements the XBRA routines.  Atari's version(s) of POOLFIX don't get
installed if they are run after hard drive booters, such as ICD's.  They
must be run BEFORE any hard drive booters, and this is impossible with 
ICD's, if you have it configured to autoboot from the hard drive.  

Claus Brod's implementation used to be called POOLFIX4, but has been 
changed to something like PLFIX_CB.
