Well I was thinking more of changes to
SystemDictionary>>vmParameterAt:put:

So you can change the values on the fly, versus having to recompile 
the VM each time you want to change the size of these arrays. Just 
malloc a new array and take what action is required to move things 
over from the old array if needbe.

Also remembering highwater marks that you could access via 
SystemDictionary>>vmParameterAt: might be a useful thing.
