mac VM 3.0.2 and 68K machines...

Some late night testing has shown the mac VM 3.0.2 doesn't run under 
OS 7.6.1 on 68K machines. This is because draglib support via a CFM 
ready draglib is missing. Apparently this functionality via a CFM 
library isn't available until 8.0. Also morphic is really really slow 
on a 68K machine

So I've fix the issue of it not running and will post a new VM in a 
day or three.

However I'd like to ask if the Squeak mac users could check how 3.0.2 
runs on different macintosh OS for me. This saves me some tedious 
time. If you could email me directly which system you tested under, 
(I'm actually just interested in System 8.x flavors) that would be 
great.

Areas of change are power management (look in the preference panel 
under performance, then restart your VM), alias support for alias 
folders in the file list, and drag and drop for files drag from the 
finder into squeak. Also of course zoomwindow support. If you have 
multiple monitors please ensure the behavior is correct.

Thanks.
