Hi,

Thanks.  I'll look into it in the next day or two.

I'm happy to help since, for selfish reasons if no other, I want
Pharo to work well on Linux, and, non x86 linuices as well.

I just don't think it makes sense to have multiple people
running VMMaker to do the same thing.  Also I don't think Squeak/Pharo/etc
is helped by having multiple VMs per platform, since that's almost
a 100% guarantee that we'll be constantly answering with:

"No, to work with the foo 9.4.2.1 image you need the bar VM 7.2.4.4.  
But for the foo 9.4.2.2 image you need the bar VM 7.7.4.8.1.  Yea, 
you want the one built by Joe because Frank insists on using his
custom patched compiler that works for no-one else.

Oh, you want to run the baz 5.6.2 image at the same time?  Ah, that
doesn't work, and, your suffix mapping will have to change every time."


Thanks again!

cheers
