Hi, Henrik your fix for the plugin directory path issue was noted and I made
some changes a week back. Today I'll look at this issue of building these
two plugins, and the FFI stuff. If you or any other mac Squeaker have any
other Mac VM related issues please let me know as soon as possible since 2.8
is pending and we should not miss the opportunity to ensure things are fixed
before rolling that out.
