Were you using an old snapshot of the Java code? core.js should *always* be the first script pulled in from the dependency chain. There was a bug that was causing this to not happen in certain cases, but it was addressed several weeks ago. If core.js isn't coming up first in some instances, that bug needs to be addressed, because it could affect other things (such as gadgets.util or gadgets.Prefs not being loaded before other features that depend on them).
