Still curious about that... Any takers?

And what's the "Super -10061 Fix" Richard's patch offers? Anybody know
this?

I've installed Yosuke Suzuki's Heaven or Hell and SysPatch 0.6b both on
Internal
store. Running Heaven or Hell, my Newton regularly freezes up, either
during
"Check NOW!", idle time check, or during the selected "Power-off check".
When I hardreset the brick and retry e.g. with "Check NOW!", then
Heaven or
Hell will proceed beyond the package where it stalled before, and stall
on a
different package. Or it even stalls on rebooting. After one or two more
hardresets, the check runs w/o freeze...

Then, repeating the check half a day later, the same behaviour can be
observed. It is still there when I freeze SysPatch (to check against
conflicts between those two packages). It stops only after Yosuke's
package
is frozen (with or w/o SysPatch running).

Why is it doing this? Have others experienced similar problems with this
patch?
