Ralph,

I'm puzzled by this, as the projects have not changed w.r.t libraries 
since 8.3.3. I have updated the Apple Universal Interfaces to what 
comes with the latest CarbonLib SDK however so the problem could 
originate there...

I don't have a system that will run 8.1, so I can't test what is 
causing the problem, maybe somebody else can help diagnose this?

If you still have your 8.3.3 install, could you try to run one of the 
unmerged 8.3.4 binaries - e.g. 'Simple Tcl (sh-ppc)' - in a folder 
with a copy of the '(Support Libraries)' folder from 8.3.3 present?

Cheers,

Daniel
