There are 2 primitives (undocumented, as far as I know)
that allow you to read and set the herald string for the
current image. Here's the source:

!ObjectMemory class methodsFor: 'herald string'!

heraldString
	"ObjectMemory heraldString"

	<primitive: 303>
	self primitiveFailed!

heraldString: aString 
	"Set the herald that is shown during image loading"
	"ObjectMemory heraldString: 'My VisualWorks Application'"

	<primitive: 304>
	self primitiveFailed! !
