Bill, I am trying to digest your comment. My concern is that new users of J on Mac not be confronted with this surprise, and I think your comment is more oriented to old users who are updating J on their existing Mac. I would also like to help existing J users who have been using a stable J602a but who buy a new Mac with the new OS, or who just buy the new OS for their intel based Mac. But again, my first concern is new users.
Anyhow, your comment made me think that Eric or someone at J could post a new stable J602a_powerpc_... with the revised jwd text file. Eric, are you listening? Oh, I see Ian was listening: a new suggestion has now come in from him.
