Is there a semi-official win32 squeak-vm with support for AlienFFI? I'm thinking about wrapping libcurl...

Someone shout put it into VMMaker (hint, hint ;-)
I'm not really up to speed on AlienFFI, but if there is anything that is ready to be incorporated into the VMMaker package, I'll be happy to do so.
On a related note, I'd like to get the classic FFI updated for 64 bit platforms (*), which is clearly a [VM-Team] issue since it requires coordinated updates to various platform sources as well as the VMMaker package.
My sense is that it would be smart to take this on prior to adding AlienFFI to VMMaker, if only to prevent bit rot in the existing 64 bit FFI patches. Does that sound right, or are these two (classic FFI and AlienFFI) sufficiently independent that is does not matter?

(*) Patches are at http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7237. These may have gone a bit stale, so I assume a few updates will be needed.
And it seems part of the build process under MacOS ...
