John, I did not compile the vm; it is the second most recent from the Pharo web site.

Oddly both supplied attributes speak of the image used, when build and compiler but speak nothing about what version the VM is, er like is this one 32/64bit clean, or 32bit address clean... An non-informed answer should be it's ok since it was compiled in feb, but without the VMMaker version number it's an uknown.
