Well, I can confirm that it was not the .RSC file of the TI desk accessory
that was causing one of those bugs I mentioned in an earlier posting (the
bug that causes a click on the "close" gadget of a GEM window to merely
highlight the gadget as though it were selecting an icon instead of performing
the close) -- I got it today, after only running one program (megaroids).

Luckily, this particular bug doesn't cause the system to crash and tends to
go away fairly quickly (after you have clicked on the darn gadget enough times)
so I guess it's not particularly destructive, except I am getting the feeling
that there are all sorts of potential memory problems floating around (probably
unreleased mallocs and so on) which could cause serious problems ...  it does
give me a kind of feeling of impending doom whenever I use the system nowadays.
