[Vm-dev] CogVM performance

[David T. Lewis]

The generated source files have a comment block that indicate the VMMaker
sources from which they were generated. The SVN 3306 src files came from
VMMaker.oscog-eem.1155, and the SVN 3308 src files were generated from
VMMaker.oscog-eem.1178. The changes that produce the performances difference
will be found somewhere in the VMMaker commits it that range.
