Re: VM build error of the week:

Actually if you generate a new VM using the latest VMMaker, ask Tim, you will find it will generate a backwards compatible entry point so that older versions of the FFI plugin will still work

However I'm not sure you've generated a new vm and ffi plugin because of the warning messages you have received below

#warning * interp.h not found -- defaulting to a 32-bit VM The unix vm config process builds this file.

#warning * update your image-side VM sources to the latest #warning * version to avoid this message

This is with the current SVN sources and a freshly generated interpreter from a clean, fully updated, 3.8 image.

I have not been able to build a VM in 6 months or so... What happened to the good old days when the VM would always build and the only errors were a result of my own ill-advised hacks?

FFI needs to work in order to support Croquet... =\
