Now before anyone asks, it's very doubtful you will see Cogit on the iOS series 
of operating systems (iphone/ipad). I have had detailed discussions with the 
Apple Security team since their goal is to prevent user level code from doing 
dynamic code generation. 

mmap for example won't return a page of memory that is executable. 

Let's say the probability of getting Apple to change their minds on this is 
zero. 

However I'll look into the StackInterpreter for the Macintosh 5.x VM and the 
iOS flavour, mind if anyone wants to do that chore early then they should ping 
me.
