Well it has been a few years so my mind is a bit fuzzy.
However if one looks at
http://www.smalltalkconsulting.com/papers/tipsAndThoughts/ 
codeFragments.html

You will find a port of Craig's flow work to Squeak 2.7, 2.8, 2.9 which  
provided for his Flow work
using the existing primitives, versus the flow specific primitives.  
I'll note the SUnit which was
as always helpful in uncovering some bugs and if I recall generating  
more work for Craig.

This of course is old and outdated, still might as well review  
everything.
