I'll bundle up the VM after work. (Tonight UK time) Exupery requires a few VM extensions, they're completely harmless unless you also load Exupery and start it running. I already need to maintain a VM for Exupery, so I merged the changes Pharo wanted into it. By merging the changes into Exupery's branch of VMMaker, they'll get in all future VMs I build. So long as you don't run Exupery, it's just another VM, but with both the truetype font changes and the closure bytecodes. You can run Seaside, and anything else. Exupery itself is compatable with Seaside. There's a tiny fix to Seaside's continuations that's been included in 2.9 that you may want. The VM is a 32 bit one, but runs OK on 64 bit Linux in compatability mode. If you want to have a modern VM with closure bytecodes then using the Exupery VMMaker is a reasonable thing to do. By just building using Exupery's latest version of VMMaker rather than the one from SqueakMap, you'll get closure support and sub-pixel anti-aliasing.
