It's not because of a missing library IMO. If you are using the '060
squirrelscsi.device it's probably because support for '040 up is installed
by SetPatch, the device thus can't be opened without an error 'til then.
I had the same prob tinkering with the '060 device then went back to the
'020 device I should have been using anyway.

I think it's used for setting SquirrelSCSI options such as POLLEDIO, DEVICE
name,
and may also be used for mounting SCSI HDs.
Return codes are 0 = success, 5 = warning (e.g. in scripts "If WARN ...")
but
continue script, 10 = error & abort script unless FailAt set higher, 20 =
failure.
