Hi Chris,

> What must be done to get this into the latest VM?

You don't have to do anything if it's in the latest VMMaker as the 3.7ish
VMs will support it. However, none have been built sofar (as I am busy with
lots of other things) and I'm not planning to do so before 3.7 is finalized.
So unless you have some urgent needs to use a later than 3.5 VM I'd
recommend sticking with your custom VM.

Cheers,
  - Andreas
