This alert gets displayed when SysAppLaunch returns a non-zero
result. Note that this result isn't the same as what your app returns
from its main routine - SysAppLaunch returns an error when there's
not enough memory to sub-launch the app, for example.
So if you could use the debugger to determine the actual result
returned by SysAppLaunch, that would tell you a lot.
My wild guess is that you've got a memory leak, and the heap fills
up, so that there's not enough free memory to sub-launch one of the
apps during the find operation.
