[Vm-dev] How to successfully load latest VMMaker.oscog?

[Jon Fletcher]

Hi Esteban, you said so, it can be a challenge. I am currently stuck on 
Cigwyn. I loaded latest and couldn't compile gcc so I tried the 
specified 5.1 for Cygwin but I couldn't find a mirror with the setup.ini 
file.  I'll take a look at what you have with Pharo.
