Thanks for the followup, Kevin. Signalling an error sounds like the right thing for the symbol case. I worry a little bit about how to phrase it so people who run places in an unsaved drracket don't get confused, tho. Maybe you have a good idea?

Doing something with the IO ports sounds good. Did you have in mind just passing the ports over in the case that they are file ports or pipes? That is, in all cases, you'd get something where the new place's io goes to the old place's ports?
