[Vm-dev] [OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm] Getting a segmentation fault on the latest squeak.cog.spur (#574)

[David T. Lewis]

Hi Ken,

Regarding VectorEnginePlugin, I added the plugin source in this branch:

  https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/tree/add-VectorEnginePlugin

And opened a pull request:

  https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/pull/578

I only updated the plugins.ext for Linux builds, as I cannot test
anything else.

I think it is safe to merge this to the Cog branch, so if no one
raises any concerns I'll merge it in another day or two.

Dave
