[Vm-beginners] Generating sources (on Win7)

Hello,
I noticed on vm-dev, that you updated the vm compiling process to gcc-4. 
Because there are no updates to the cog svn, I assume that those changes 
are for the standard stack vm, but not cog. Is this right? And what 
would need to change to be able to compile cog with mingw gcc 4? Given 
the updates to the stack vm repository, are they (easily?) adaptable to 
cog, given some hours of fighting with the compiler, or have those 
projects diverged to far?

When creating sources using the most recent versions of Squeak, 
VMMaker.oscog and Cog, I always end up with a compiler error in 
ADPCMCodecPlugin.c. If I use instead that file from the cog svn, there 
are no errors. How is the file in the repository generated?

So far, generating the sources using the SqueakCogVM configuration, I 
changed the URIs in that method. What is the proper way to configure 
where I checked out the sources? (Telling FileDirectory>>#pathFromURI: 
to substitute 'oscogvm' by the correct path, I guess.)

Thank you,
Lars
