Before you do that, can you verify that the problem is reproducible and
that you're using the proper VM (4.0.2)? This problem might happen
because you're using an older VM.

Thanks,

hello andreas,
positive. i double-click on the "Squeak4.0.2.exe"
that comes from http://ftp.squeak.org/trunk/4.1rc3.

Smalltalk vmVersion says

  'Squeak3.10.2 of 11 February 2010 [latest update: #9314]'

That may or may not be a clue ;)

I tried to debug into it:
SMSqueakMap instVar objects seems to be nil where it should not.
so i "browse full", then do "inst var defs" for objects, which
gives
SMSqueakMap>>purge which sets it to nil, and
SMSqueakMap>>copyFrom:aMap which copies from the aMap objects.

Implementors of objects gives
SMSqueakMap>>objects ^objects

hmm? i have no clue where this thing is supposed to be initialized?
cheers,
wolfgang

This is being fixed right now - including tons of other SM related things.
