I am not sure.  ImageSegment is a full of c...and maybe it will be even
removed. It was not working since a lot of time and nobody says anything. We
even started to remove part of it in Pharo. And SqueakMap was completely
removed.

I think for Pharo 1.0 is better a well tested VM like the 4.2.3.b1 is, and
let version 5 for Pharo 1.1.

What do you think ?

Cheers
