Ok... I couldn't get it to work entirely correctly; here's my notes:

configuration: src directory under Squeak directory
platforms directory somewhere else.

Remove the src directory.
Start VMMaker.
Tell it where the directories are.
make a config with all internal.
Tell it "generate all".
src directory is populated.
chmod +x configure util/*
./configure
make

error:

but those headers live in vm/libmpeg

Note that this is not what happened the first time I tried this.

Edited Makefile to add
-I ../src/vm/libmpeg -I ../src/vm/libmpeg/audio -I ../src/vm/libmpeg/video
to the Mpeg3Plugin make line

interestingly, there are two sets of Makefile lines for each file, so that I 
get a lot of messages like:

Makefile:554: warning: overriding commands for target `sqUnixExternalPrims.o'
Makefile:413: warning: ignoring old commands for target 
`sqUnixExternalPrims.o'

cd vm/libmpeg
chmod +x mkMakefile
make

this makes libmpeg3.a

try make again in src, this still doesn't use the .a file so I get lots of 
undefined references as above.

OK, try again, without the Mpeg3Plugin at all.

rm -rf src
mkdir src (not sure this is necessary)

re-start VMMaker (if I don't the directory doesn't get constructed/files 
copied).

choose "all internal"

remove Mpeg3Plugin from internal list (move to available)

re-generate all

cd src
chmod +x configure util/*
./configure
make

_now_ I get a squeak...
