I thought might try to compile myself a new VM. So I downloaded 
revision 954 from 
http://squeak.hpl.hp.com/svn/squeak/trunk/platforms,  installed 
VMMaker 3.8.b2B into a fresh 3.8g image, created the interpreter 
stuff and compiled it. I found the following errors:

interpreter.c uses getImageName, wich is nowhere implemented. Changing 
this back to using the variable imageName seems to work.

in sqUnixEvent.c are references to recordMouseEvent.reserved2, 
recordKeyboardEvent.reserved3 and sqDragDropFilesEvent.reserved1. 
These variables do not exist in the record structures defined in 
sq.h. Removing the offending code in sqlUnixEvent.c seems to work.
