Hi Edwin,

Let's try one more thing before we give up.

Looking at that error message, I think you must be encountering this issue
on FreeBSD:

https://github.com/FluidSynth/fluidsynth/issues/133

That explains the "duplicate case value" error you are seeing. It will
affect only the ALSA vm plugin, so if ALSA sound is excluded from the build
I expect the error will be gone. Please try the following:

- Put SoundCodecPrims and SoundGenerationPlugin back into your plugins.int
file. These were the the cause of the problem.

- In your build/Makefile, find the line that defines CFLAGS_PARAM, and
change it to this (leading space before the "--" is important, so copy
this exactly):

  CFLAGS_PARAM=" --without-vm-sound-ALSA --CFLAGS='-O2 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64'"

- Do a "make clean" followed by "make".

If this does not work, then let's move the question over to the vm-dev
list, and ask "can anyone can help provide either a Cog or interpreter VM
for V3 image on FreeBSD?" It is possible that someone may be running a Cog
OpenSmalltalk VM on FreeBSD, and if so that might be a better way to get
you running on FreeBSD.

CC to the vm-dev list.

Dave
