A friend is running 6.0.3 on a MacII.  He's having problems with
Suitcase and Macintalk which we're inclined to blame on the new system,
since they both worked previously.

Suitcase (v1.0) loads DAs/fonts fine on start-up, but when you bring up
its dialog box both the Open File and Close File buttons are disabled
(grayed out).  Kinda defeats the purpose.

Macintalk is more interesting: Anytime a program (e.g., The Moose,
MPW's say script) tries to access macintalk the machine crashes and
burns.

Anyone had similar experiences?  Do we think it's the new system?

Thanks in advance.
