I discovered the following problem on a Mac II with 4MB RAM, 80 MB disk,
running MultiFinder/System 6.0.2 with lots of inits.
With Suitcase 1.3 active, F/DA Mover fails to renumber the owned resources of
desk accessories when moving them around. This can cause a large variety of
fatal error messages (or worse yet, if there are no conflicting resources,
a DA file that seems to be fine but will cause crashes). Note that this
happens when building a new suitcase. I suspect that the same thing would
happen if you tried to add DAs to your system file, but I was less than
anxious to experiment...
Whose fault is this? Can anybody else reproduce this? I am guessing that
Suitcase is the culprit, but I'm far from certain.

Font DA/Mover always renumbers owned resources. It shouldn't be used under MultiFinder. It works fine without suitcase with 6.0.2, so I would consider SuitCase to be at fault, as you suggested.
