Don't modify \topsep then, just put the spacing directly into the Schunk 
redefinition.  For example,

\renewenvironment{Schunk}{\vspace{20pt}}{\vspace{30pt}}

The way environments work in LaTeX is that the first arg (\vspace{20pt}) 
is put at the start, and the second one (\vspace{30pt}) at the end. 
Nothing happens in the middle, but the definitions for \Sinput and 
\Soutput implicitly make use of the \topsep size, so the definition 
below affected everything.
