I can't imagine how the 7.4 release would cause Mac zephyr clients to
crash, but here it is.

What's wrong:
Looks like an incompatibility between MacZephyr and Athena 7.4 (both myself and
Jeanne Cavanaugh have discovered this as of this week - everything seemed fine
as of last week). Prior to this week, if I had MacZephyr running and was also
logged into Athena (on two different machines!), and a zephyrgram came in, it
would display on both Athena and the Mac.

Now, if I am on both systems and a zephyrgram comes in, it displays on Athena,
but it crashes MacZephyr, and when I try to reconnect MacZephyr, it freezes
my Mac. By the way, it only seems to happen if the MacZephyr window is not the
active window on the Mac (i.e., MacZephyr is in the background of Multifinder).
If MacZephyr is the active window, it displays the message.
