A couple of people pointed me to the cause of my problem (Hypercard
not opening a stack via AUFS).  A trap on the _Open call verified it:
Hypercard (version 1.2.1, anyway) does very weird things to the
filename capitalization when opening a stack.  It appears to alternate
upper and lower case letters (starting with lower case). So the stack
named "Technical Notes Stack 3.0" is opened as "tEcHnIcAl nOtEs sTaCk 3.0"
After renaming my stack to correspond, it worked fine.

One of my correspondants suggested that this might be fixed in a more
recent release, so I suppose when that comes out I will have to rename
my stack again.
