Does anyone have any idea why this should be? Just curious.
Often times upgades of a significant nature will do some diddling with the internals as well as the oooh factor portions of the application. it's likely that one of th bugs was that it was taking too long to decode the 128k stream and was overrunning the buffer.

Just a WAG, mind, but it makes sense...
