Try running them through HyperMover.  It breaks up the
stack into graphics, scripts, and text fields which you
can examine.

Also, the meat of stacks are scripts and text.  These
you can examine with a file editor, since they are
stored in ASCII form.  The icons and sounds can be
stripped out with a resource editor or icon editors
like ICE and UtilityWorks and sound editors like Audio
Zap.

If you are a programmer, you might be able to patch
HyperCard IIGS to bypass the protect stack function.
