Yep.  StarSqueakLife doesn't use the accelerated primitives (for scent 
evaporation and diffusion) that the plugin provides.  Try the "Ant Colony" 
from the Morphic objects browser for an example that exercises the plugin.

I had experimented with a "birth scent" and a "death scent" that cells 
emitted in their life cycle (sic), but didn't find it pretty 
enough.  Shouldn't be too hard to add back to the code though.

If you're using a recent win32 VM, it is indeed internal.  Try an "Ant 
Colony" or "StarSqueakSlimeMold new openInWorld" to load it.
