Hi Tim (Rowledge),

The system tracer has been working for quite a few years
(http://www.squeaksource.com/SystemTracing).

That is how the 64-bit format 68002 images are done:
http://build.squeak.org/job/Squeak%2064-bit%20image/

I turned that job off because the upstream job was no longer maintained,
but it still works fine.

Dave
