MPW and Mac OS 8.5

A serious bug has been discovered in the MPW Shell and ToolServer which can
cause a Macintosh running Mac OS 8.5 to experience errors and File Manager
operational failures. The bug exists in all versions prior to version 3.5d4
which was released on 9/9/98. The problem occurs when the Shell and/or
ToolServer are executing a sequence of tools (such as during a build
cycle), and the Mac OS 8.5 Finder is used to start a file and/or folder
copy operation.
