The most serious code modifications I am having to make relates to  
less liberal use of processes. Spawning a new process at the wrong  
time may take down RMCL. Starting a new process in general works  
fine, as long as it is not as a consequence of user activity. It may  
have to do with whether there are any event handling going on. For  
example, evaluating a process-run-function like below in Fred or the  
Listener reliably causes my vanilla RMCL to "quit unexpectedly" (G4,  
OSX 10.4.11).

(process-run-function "NeverStarts" (lambda ()()))
