First of all; what do you mean by a 'Legacy Standalone' ?
Do you mean:
1. A standalone made to run on an out-dated OS (such as Mac Classic) ?
Yes! Precisely.
2. Something quite different ?
"The rev stack was saved as a Legacy Stack"
If that was so, what did you build the standalone with?
I built the standalone using that stack using Rev 3, but running it
under 2.6.1 on a G4 with OS 9.2.1. I suppose I should transfer the
Legacy saved stack over to the G4 and build the standalone under 2.6.1
- assuming that will work. Hadn't even thought of that. Now that I
have everything on my Intel Mac with a very large monitor, I hate it
when I have to do anything on the G4, but that sure makes sense. Thanks.

I, personally, build a lot of stacks for Mac OS 9 with Runtime
Revolution 2.0.1; they work delightfully well.
I pump my stacks onto a dedicated Mac OS 9 machine via my domestic
intranet (i.e. a few cables on a switch), then open them in RR
2.0.1, play around with them to see that they behave themselves
[always remembering that fancy features introduced since 2.0.1
aren't going to show], and run off Mac OS 8/9 standalones.
I also produce a lot for Ubuntu Linux; and my rule (after some
fairly revolting foul-ups) is never to build a standalone for one
platform on another platform. Having said that, on the few occasions
I have built something for a client who uses Microsoft Windows I
have resorted to using Connectix Virtual PC on my G4.
sincerely, Richmond Mathewson.
