This looks like an initialization bug due to not having generated a VM source tree (eg spur64src/vm) before having generated a plug-in. Can you confirm whether you generated the FilePlugin in isolation or not?
It should be fixed and I hope it will be easy to fix, but a workaround is simply to generate any VM configuration and then the plugin, and then use gitrevert to discard the generated VM.
