I would also rather disable it. We had numerous reports where this  
failed. I think "the right way" to do it is to have a build server  
that creates new Pharo images from the PharoCore version (i.e.,  
"nightly builds"). Until we have this automated, one can always grab  
an up to date PharoCore and build a Pharo image using the Metacello  
configuration.
