This is http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=6667. The fix was applied to VMMaker-tpr.63. You are probably using sources generated from VMMaker 3.8b6, which is the same as VMMaker-tpr.58, so the sources you are using would not have this fix. If someone can build a VM using more up to date VMMaker and verify that the problem goes away, that would be good. I suggest using VMMaker-dtl.113 from the VMMaker project on SqueakSource for this. (Note, there is a more recent VMMaker-eem.114 that contains Eliot's updates for block closures, but you may have trouble loading it into some Squeak/Pharo images. The glitch may be sorted out by the time you read this, if not just stick with VMMaker-dtl.113 or earlier for now.) > > I guess that next up I have to figure out how to actually run vm maker :-) > Yes :) Dave _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project
