My final verification of Brents change was successful on the latest 3.7alpha image (and has been on the 3.6 image for some time).

Thanks! Chris

A while back I submitted a VM + image change to add support for #becomeForward: where the identity hash of the argument is not modified. This is required for Magma.

This has been approved by the VM guys and Tim Rowledge has released the VMMaker SAR for 3.7a.

A VM build using this package includes the new primitive.

A changeset for the image associated image enhancement is attached, as is a set of SUnit tests.

The image and VM changes can be introduced independantly of each other.

Others have previously reviewed and tested this enhancement; please can it be added as an update for 3.7alpha.

The tests should be added to the Base Image Test Suite package.

PS. I will be over in Atlanta from Africa next week, should anyone want a beer.

Regards,

Brent
