By the time we have drop-in support, we'll have fixed this problem.

In the meantime, you can do this:

	make a new system drive via

		makehfv System newsys.hfv 10m

	then go into Executor and copy everything from the original System:
	into the new System:

	move aside the old system

		move exsystem.hfv exsystem.bak

	rename the new system

		move newsys.hfv exsystem.hfv

Please check and see how it goes under 1.99q4.  If it's still broken
there, we'll try to pick up the demo installer and fix it.
