Good, if you can make this change and make it available on a repository, then
I'll update the MCConfiguration for VMMaker to pull in the FFI-SharedPools.
Bert suggested the same naming convention for Speech-SharedPools, so I
can update the Speech packaging if that is the preference.

I have a slight bias, motivated primarily by personal laziness, toward
the original Squeak categories that would lead to e.g.
VMConstruction-Interpreter/ObjectMemory
VMConstruction-Plugins/FFIPlugin
VMConstruction-Plugins-OSProcessPlugin/OSProcessPlugin
But either convention would be fine. Long term I think that VMMaker should
be repackaged into smaller pieces, and I have a hard time improving on the
category names that were used back in Squeak 2.4.
