DigiTalk supplies a partial fix for this problem that seems to work. I say 
it is a partial fix because it works only with Finder, not with 
MultiFinder (according to the comments that came with the code). 
Accordingly, I have not bothered to use it, except to confirm that it fixes the problem in the situation that Digitalk says it will, as the machine on which I use two montiors is dedicated to activities that more or less require use of MultiFinder. SmallTalk/V is thus relegated to another machine with only 1 monitor.
I regard this as a fairly serious problem with SmallTalk/V that I can only 
assume Digitalk is hard at work fixing, along with the abnormal behavior 
of its text editor (in violation of standard Mac interface conventions).
