I have a '95 Aero that had a similar problem a couple of years ago. Could be the ignition cassette - had mine replaced at 72k miles back in '02 (104k now) - but I'm pretty sure the symptom you described was caused by a faulty throttle housing, bleeder and check valves - had those replaced in 8/03. Sorry I can't be more certain.
FYI - the symptom went like this: depress the gas to increase RPM and instead that action decreases RPM to almost stall levels - I've heard Saab calls this 'limp home' mode. The problem for me was very on-again, off-again, sometimes weeks between events. If I shut it down and let the car sit for a few minutes, usually it would 'reset' and upon starting it again, no problem.
IF you have to drive today, you might plan some extra time, but its definitely something you want to address reasonably quickly - the problem might hide but doubtful it will go away.
