But this need people checking all works when we modify other packages.
In particular,  have MorphicWrappers working in last
FunSqueakCog4.2-10423-alpha.8.image, but hangs in
FunSqueakCog4.2-10774-alpha i build this morning.

The idea of some like the old Bob SuperSwiki is very good.
We could have the .pr files living in http://ftp.squeak.org/4.2/worlds
