Hi Lukas,

I dig into this problem a little, and I'm not sure that it is possible
: the vm-xxxx architecture seems to prevent such a thing, maybe we
have to modify the Makefile ? Moreover, I tried to generate a vm with
internal plugin, and it seems (but maybe I'm wrong) that it is
different to generate the vm with the plugin compiled statically. I
have the impression that the Makefile should be modified to achieve
such a thing. Maybe Ian Piumarta could help. Anyway if you manage to
compile squeak statically, I'm really interested !

Regards,
Samir
