I think this was brought up on IRC and there might have been a post on this list.  Someone on SqueakPeople posted in their diary the steps to take.  You essentially need to 

get Ian's 3.6g-2 sources
get Ned's VM patches off the list and apply them
get a pre-built vm 
get the latest 3.6 image
load VMMaker.
sort the paths out
build the vm

Cheers
