There's a new release of Exupery now on SqueakMap. Exupery
is a bytecode to machine code compiler for Squeak. It currently
only runs on Linux/x86.

This release is reliable enough to play with. It compiles the
same amount of code as the previous release but hardly crashes
anymore. 

Instructions for installing it are here:

interpreter.
