VM config managment problems...

Dudes, Squeak rules but currently there are the following configuration
managment problems: 

1. The Sourceforge CVS repository is unsynced with the VM source that
the current Squeak immage/vmmaker creates... My suggested fix is to go
ahead and update the C-code generator to generate the foo structure
because it will be useful for a later paralellization effort and because
it delivers the previously mentioned performance boosts on some RISC
platforms...

2. The Sourceforge CVS archive is unsynched with Ian's source in that it
doesn't contain the recient addition of the /unix/vm-display-fbdev
driver (among a growing list of conflicts I would wager...) Ian doesn't
like CVS very much but, to the best of my knowlege, the CVS repository
is the official source repository???? So I suggest that someone who is
comfortable with CVS and has the appropriate authority, go in and synch
up the conflicts....
