Specifically, the class comments of ConfigurationOfSton and STONWriter did definitively change, I can see the changed comments in the MC code browser, but when I load the code, the comments stay the same, both in Nautilus as using the #comment message.

!!!!! There are two changes in the behavior how packages are loaded - somewhere, don't know what exactly. See my analysis 17655 Changes in package loading behavior I don't know how many changed class comments got lost since Pharo-50497 !
Thanks for looking into this, Nicolai. This strikes me as an important bug, not because I reported it, but because we silently lose code. And because we have to test to guard us against such loss of functionality. Sven
