HELP! Patched PRO.FST?



Until my system croaked on me a few months ago, I had patched versions of
BASIC.SYSTEM, P8, and PRO.FST to allow me to use less-restrictive
filenames.  Very handy for backing up my palmtop, which uses some MS-DOS
filenames which are illegal under ProDOS (such as "SYS$.IMG").

Well, I dug out the patcher program (NAMEFIX) and ran it.  Then I rebooted
the system, and the machine crashed.

I restored the unpatched version of Pro.FST and the system booted OK
(apparently that was the one I had trouble with...). 

So...Any suggestions?  Anybody know where I might find a different
filename-restriction patcher for the Pro.FST?  As it is, I have two files
on one of my drives that GS/OS won't even touch 'cause it doesn't like the
filename... 8-(
