I have a Mac SE with a Radius 25 Mhz Accelerator. I am using the final 
version
of MCL 2.0 running on system 6.0.7 for about 2 weeks and had no problems on 
it. 

Certainly MCL 2.0b1p3 had some problems when performing GC.

Also, MACL 1.3.2 was fine to me. However, certainly MCL 2.0 runs faster than
MACL 1.3.2.
