This process is a bit outdated, FFI and Speech are not dependencies 
anymore, the dependencies are extracted into FFI-Pools and 
SharedPool-Speech. FFI's repository is http://source.squeak.org/FFI, not 
Ladrillos on squeaksource (it never was).
Dave made a Monticello configuration for Squeak. Based on that someone 
could create a Metacello configuration.
