Question: What does MPW 2.0.x do when it put up its bulldoozer-cursor? I 
suppose some sort of garbage collection takes place, but why is it so
slooow? I used dumpcode to check out a code segment of about 40K on my
SE. MPW went away bulldoozering twice; first time for five minutes, second
time for nearly eight minutes. Cannot be a good implementation, can it?
