I was one of the people who was in on that discussion.  We all kind of
scratched our heads and said, "darned if we can find the problem," and went
on to more tractable bugs.  As I remember, it only happened on the Mac Plus,
and only in certain configurations.  My guess was that it was a memory
problem of some sort, but I couldn't find any such problem.  Responder
certainly didn't seem to be eating any resources (it's really pretty
simple as INITs go...).  Until now I had't seen anyone else report it.  Sigh.
