Hopefully in the next round of official VM releases we'll have it
shipped as standard. Dave Lewis has taken the first steps towards
folding it into the Interpreter VM. Pharo VMs ship with it as standard
nowadays.

For the moment you have to get it here:
http://code.google.com/p/squeakssl/downloads/list

I've only looked at how to install it in the context of a
built-it-myself interpreter VM. In this case, you go into the bld/
directory you had to make as part of compiling a VM. You make a
SqueakSSL directory, and you put the so.SqueakSSL file from the
above-mentioned download (which includes binaries for Linux, Windows
and Mac).

Then you just start up the image, try install something, and (fingers
crossed), things just work. It should support installing both chunk
format repositories (like Ken's Cuis-Ropes) and FileTree format
repositories like my Control library ((Installer github user:
'frankshearar' repository: 'Control') install). The latter might well
have broken stuff; it's definitely ropier code.
