For building CogVM you should use the existing plugin code in the Cog 
VMMaker image (so don't load anything there).
To use FFI you should load the code available at 
http://source.squeak.org/FFI .
Cog FFI is not Alien FFI, AFAIK it's a modified/extended version of the 
original FFI.

I doubt anyone tested it using gcc 4.5, so there may be problems. The 
"official" windows build uses gcc 3.4.4. You can get the current latest 
build here:
