I've had a couple of blue screen crash/logout experiences when 
running RMCL only on MacIntel and Leopard & SL.

The symptoms seem to match those of others running PPC applications, 
and seems be due to the windowserver process failing due to some 
deficiency in Rosetta (typically when the PPC app is running, if the 
user is typing too fast, or doing rapid multiple tasks in PPC 
programs, or just running them too long, this may to trigger the 
log-out event).

I read that "a few people have reported to be successful, is 
reinstall Rosetta from the OS DVD, or download it from Apple, repair 
permissions, then apply the 6.1 Snow update again, and repair 
permissions again."

Anyway, nothing that RMCL can do about it I suspect.
I'm not sure if related, but if mouse clicks or keyboard entry seem 
to go dead, selecting the desktop may restore.
