I am working my way through the Squeak: Learn Programming with Robots and I hit some unexpected behavior with the halt method in Chapter 15.  I am not at that computer at the moment so cannot say exactly which 3.x version of the VM I am using.  It is using the Ready.image and the V3.sources files.

According to the book, the halt method should cause execution to stop and invoke the debugger.  It does in fact invoke the debugger, however, it also skips past and keeps executing.  Is there by chance some setting somewhere telling the program to skip that method and keep executing?

I can follow-up later tonight with better details, but thought I'd through the question out in case there was in fact an easy answer...
