could the cache be reimplemented using WeakArray? Stuff like this is a drag. eg in Squeak the Windows menu holds onto all the windows that were open when last the menu was opened. So to get a window reclaimed after being closed if you opened the Windows menu you have to open it again. I must fix that.

I spent a couple of hours trying to find out why the #obsoleteClasses test sporadically fails. I��ve found one candidate that fixes all the failures that I could produces. Simply put, any test that does something AST related (e.g. runs critics) *has to* reset the ASTCache during #tearDown:

ASTCache reset.

I��ve found two test classes that needed to be adapted: SmalllintManifestCheckerTest and VSReleaseDevelopmentVersionCommandTest.
