I have encountered the same problem. The issue is that Eliot develops Cog
in an image that has these methods, but Squeak and Pharo do not have them
in their base images. IMO it would be good to add them to VMMaker.oscog, and
implement them in Squeak/Pharo at a later date if there is a need.

Either way, the methods are trivial (attached).
