[squeak-dev] Updating VMs and possible conflicts

I did a bit of a survey of VMs on boxes 3 and 4. [1] My aim is to upgrade box4 to the latest Cog (non-Spur) VM available. 
I think I can do that in box4 with no fuss, as I don't think the Interpreter VM is installed. So I don't expect a conflict. It is worth noting that some binaries are stored in /usr/local/lib and others in /usr/lib. 

About where to put the .deb files. I guess the proper thing is to use cogdeb.zip in /root/localbuild and then copy the deb to /root/localdeb.
