Note that Igor is a paid Pharo developer, he's talking about Pharo's
decision. Squeak developers plan to support the interpreter VMs for a
while to give people more time for the transition to CogVM (which as you
already noticed doesn't have all the features of SqueakVM yet).

Andreas is the maintainer of the Windows SqueakVM. He's busy nowadays, but
I'm sure he will release a new Windows VM in the near future. But if
you're impatient, then you can build one yourself and see if anything has
to be fixed.

Try the 5.7.4 Mac VM, if it's built from the latest VMMaker sources
(which I guess it is), then it should be like the 4.4.7 Unix VM.
