VM 4.4 build niceness (was: Re: [Vm-dev] [squeak-dev] VM 4.4 build nastinesses - part 1 of probably many)

Things are pretty much working out here in the Pacific rainforest citadel. Aside from some Socket plugin work I have to do to get it up to date the VM is running ok. I'm a bit disappointed in the speed of the UI in the 4.4 image but we'll see how that goes.

The odd bit remaining today is what might have changed that is causing Scratch to fail to open up properly; it never gets to open the window and eventually crashes with a low space fail. This is a bit strange since the Scratch image runs ok on the older 4.0 vm and runs on the iMac with a 4.2VM. I've heard faint rumours of some Scratch related window updating issue so maybe there is a change in bitbltplugin? Anyone recall a relevant change?
