Latest Pharo 7 image doesn't give normal debugger on a method with undefined class method - get System Error

I was going to look at testing my Create class in the debugger fixes however the latest image behaves in a manner I’ve not seen before.

In a fresh P7 image - build 1198 64bit osx (with latest vm downloaded by launcher) - I have created a new class in a new package

TimTest:TimTest>>testMethod

"self new testMethod"

FooObject new someMethod

Where FooObject and someMethod are undefined and when I saved the method I left them as undefined.

I then evaluated - TimeTest new testMethod in a playground and I get a white screen with *** System error handling failed *** (screenshot below)

In an earlier image (build 1167) this wasn’t the case?

Has something been broken?

Excuse the noise - this was user error, I synchronised my Pharo repository with an out of date local copy, so I must have brought in some incompatible changes with the new VM.

Phew !
