squeak normally doesn't support underscores in method names. to fix it 
change the line in Scanner>>xLetter

(type _ typeTable at: c ifAbsent: [#xLetter]) == #xLetter or: [type == 
#xDigit]]

to

(type := typeTable at: c ifAbsent: [#xLetter]) == #xLetter or: [type == 
#xDigit or: [type == #leftArrow]]]

I have to do the same for glorp port.

you can look/adapt at the VW implementation of ifNil:ifNotNil: which 
handles both 0 and 1 argument blocks. Squeak's only handles block without 
arguments
