A follow-up question: once updated using FrankUpater
#updateFromSystemRepository, is loading Frank via the latest .mcm the
way to go (i.e. exploratory/packages/update-yo.54.mcm) or an
alternative approach suggested?   My first attempt resulted in OMeta
attempting to load out of order (postload before preload) and an
undefined method (on LObject, iirc) so I'm thinking that either the
load configuration is a bit out of date/broken or there's an alternate
way I should be doing things?

I was familiar with some of the history but don't think I'd heard it
referred to as the Croquet Cog VM before. (i.e. I only recall it being
called just the Cog VM)
