Is it worth delaying the release?

[Andrew Tween]

Hi Bryce,
I have built a Win32 vm.
Firstly, I tried building from a Squeak3.8.1-6747-full image, but that gave MNU
errors when generating :(.
So then I tried again with Squeak3.8-6665-full, and this time it generated, and
compiled ok.

4 tests are failing in the ExuperyStoryTests...
      #testBlockBug3
      #testBlockNonLocalReturnsRecycleContexts
      #testBlocksAndProcessesBug
      #testDelayWaitStressTest

The benchmarks are...
    arithmaticLoopBenchmark 2487 compiled 285 ratio: 8.726
    bytecodeBenchmark 4271 compiled 1255 ratio: 3.403
    sendBenchmark 3482 compiled 1772 ratio: 1.965
    doLoopsBenchmark 2078 compiled 1663 ratio: 1.250
    largeExplorers 2224 compiled 1683 ratio: 1.321
    compilerBenchmark 2093 compiled 1712 ratio: 1.223
    Cumulative Time 12903.774 compiled 4971.489 ratio 2.596

Let me know if the above indicates a fully-functioning VM and I'll let you have
it.
Cheers,
Andy
