VMMaker 4.16.4

For compatibility with Spur image expectations, install primitiveInstVarAt and primitiveInstVarAtPut in the 173 and 174 numbered primitive slots in addition to their original assignments to slots 73 and 74 as referenced from tradtional images. Addresses issues first identified in Cuis, which maintains image formats for V3 and Spur from a common base.
