Change it to "kCompiledCFragArch"

Make the change:

Delay(1, (unsigned long *)&junk);

In the "Edit:SqueakPPC Settings...", select "Linker:PPC PEF" and set the
Fragment Name to "SqueakVMPrims".  This is the fragment name the external
primitive mechanism wants for internalized named primitives.

You may also need to make the PBxxxAsync calls get recognized in
"sqMacAsyncFilePrims.c".  The best way to do this is to insert the lines:

#undef OLDROUTINELOCATIONS
#define OLDROUTINELOCATIONS 1

just before the inclusion of <Files.h>.  This will have to be fixed in a
bette way in the long run - I believe these particular calls are being
replaced.

Good luck!
