the change that must be performed
For RC image (Pharo) the main difference :
In the class SmartSyntaxPluginCodeGenerator
On Pharo : the selector #ccgValBlock: ==> avoid to fix block or execute this method silently.
On Squeak: need to fix the temporary variable block
In the class MiscPrimitivePlugin)
the selector be careful with the name of a method #translatedPrimitives
On Pharo : (ByteString findSubstringViaPrimitive:in:startingAt:matchTable:)
On Squeak : (ByteString findSubstring:in:startingAt:matchTable:)
Then VMMaker use a method #replaceLastOccurance
this method is deprecated in Pharo et must use :
On Pharo : String #replaceLastOccurrence:
On Squeak too :)
