Regarding the SqueakSSL plugin, there are two Mantis entries that you should
read for background:

  http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7751

  http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7793

IIRC, the SqueakSSL plugin works when compiled for 32-bits, but not if
you compile it for 64-bits. There are probably some issues with 64 bit
pointers stored in 32-bit int and sqInt variables. If you can make some
progress on this, it would be great :-)
