My understanding is VMMaker should work with Pharo
Look in the archives for Gofer and VMMaker
Once you've built a VMMaker image you need to load the Alien plugin logic.
This might be loaded by previous gofer scripts, otherwise:
"add Alien Support Packages"
gofer squeaksource: 'Alien';
addPackage:'Alien-VMMaker-Support'.
IF all else fails follow the manual process via:
http://squeakvm.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/platforms/Mac%20OS/vm/Documentation/readme.txt?rev=1984&view=auto
I note Balloon 3D might be optional.
Install Balloon 3D via the SqueakMap package Loader,
Install FFI & Klatt via MC

install FFI via FFI-Kernel-ar.7
and install KLATT via Speech-Klatt-edc.1
