In the IDE toolbar, the red "X" which is supposed to kill a running program no longer works. What do I have to do to get it to work again?

A bit odd. Is that the only unusual behavior? Probably the easiest fix would be to uninstall-reinstall.

Strange - but what did you do in the meantime from when it still worked ?

e.g.: did you assign new hotkeys or added new toolbar buttons ?

I did change some user configuration settings but nothing that would affect the toolbar. I've looked around in Preferences and don't see anything that would change the behavior of the red "X".

(SOME TIME LATER)

I reinstalled PB from the .img file and no joy. The only way to kill my running program is with the Activity Monitor, unless I make the program quit by responding to a CloseWindow event.

Is the debugger turned on?

The red X is a feature of the debugger. It doesn't work on programs compiled without it.

Turning the debugger on did the trick, but I will note that there is no change in the appearance of the debugger icon with the debugger turned on or off.
