Kunga--

I removed all Toast stuff I could find, ran the Toast 5.0 installer 
in Classic (that one didn't run in OS X), then ran the new 5.2 
updater I had just downloaded. That fixed Toast  for me, so I didn't 
get the "expired" message anymore.

However, I still didn't have the direct-to-Toast VCD export 
capability in iMovie 2 before I upgraded to iMovie 3. To make my VCD, 
I exported my movie as QuickTime (best quality, largest size), then 
dragged that into Toast's VCD window. Hopefully, when Roxio gets the 
iMovie 3 export stuff working, I'll get that functionality working.
