<p>Thanks Eliot,</p>
<p>Yep, it works on the Mac (I originally tried on Linux). I guess
no-one seriously cares about gardening the ARM plugin on Linux. I
can see that, given that for what I needed it (which is, for
reference) the Mac version served me just fine.</p>
<p>The good news is that simulating REPL works fine on ARM, too. I
just committed GDB-bgs.4. Now, on to getting rid of the
TargetAware and its subclasses!<br>

<p>To build the latest Cog VM with the ARM simulation

<p>Is this the supposed way? Has anyone built ARM recently?</p>

Hmmm. I build regularly but on MacOS. I’ve not had occasion to
try win6; or linux64. Will try to have a look at this today.

<p>I build a fair amount of ARM code somewhat regularly on
this machine, therefore I doubt this is some basic
dysfunctionality of my dev environment.</p>
<p>My first reflex was to go and just hack into the
problem, but if it doesn't even go this far out of the
box, then I'd expect I am somehow wrong and I thought
I'd ask before digging myself too deep into the wrong
direction. Also I've been having doubts, if these
configure scripts were broken, people would be
complaining? does anyone do ARM? (and by that I mean
"develop the VM" for which you need the simulator) Why
isn't CI complaining? does CI only cover Intel? does
CI only cover production-packaging?<br>
