As always, things not working out of the box.

- VM builds from unzipped VM sources OK
- but for building with VMMaker generated sources, had to fix 'gnuify'
file to make a clean build

i dreaming to build vm straight from squeak, without horrid makefiles.
I heard that Keith did a 'Bob' tool which can be used as a kind of
make utility.
But i think, to fully replace makefiles, it needs an OSProcessPlugin
to be able to interact with OS/shell.
