[Vm-dev] Strange error while building stack vm

[stephane ducasse]

hi john

I think that there are two issues:
	- is it reasonable (did it work in the past) to build a Stack vm using an automatic build and should igor 
	spend his time on that?
	- what are the actions to be done to the the vm on apple store?
I see them as two different things. Right now we would like to have a server that builds all the vm for all the platforms
automatically so that we can move on to spend energy on something else than fighting with makefiles.
