Hi All,

    please find new VMs in
http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/VM.r2485/.  These fix a couple of
long-standing bugs.  One is a rare crash in GC on copying a compiled method,
caused by the VM not making sure that a copy of a method that has been
compiled to machine code is an independent copy.  The other is a potential
bug in GC with become where a become causes some machine code methods to
gain references to young objects but the VM forgets to include these methods
in the young referrers (those machine code methods that refer to young
objects).
-- 
best,
Eliot
