       I already tried running make-core-database on the latest Lambda core, but
       it gets errors (which I believe are related to the fact that the Core
       quota system is based on objects, while the make-core verb expects a
       byte-based quota system.)
        Has anyone managed to create a core database from LambdaCore and can
       they please give me some pointers?

    I'm surprised that the problem is related to byte vs object quota,
    especially considering that the core extraction would be done as a
    wizard character.  It is still possible you are correct, though.

    I don't really want to offer my time in helping you debug this, but I
    would suggest that any future bug reports about make-core-database
    include more detail, rather than speculation on the cause without
    enough data for others to confirm or deny that speculation.

    It's been a while since I made a core db.  I'm not surprised that some
    stuff fails; a lot of the :init_for_core verbs try to remove lambdamoo
    specific stuff, and they may explode.  It should be fairly
    straightforward to determine which :init_for_core is failing by
    examining the traceback, and generally fixes should also be
    straightforward---remove the offending code.
