Is such a hierarchy really necessary for a small project like squeak-vm? 
platforms/, vm/ and docs/ are superfluous. It is easier to keep code and 
docs in sync if they are kept together. How about a simpler:

 squeak-svn/  <--- platform neutral vm code, README, docs at the top level
      plugins/ <--- platform neutral plugin stuff goes here
      macos/  <--- MAC specific vm code and docs go here
             plugins/ <-- mac-specific plugin stuff goes here.
      unix/       <--- unix specific code and docs go here
      win32/    <--- Win32 specific code and doc go here
      ....
      newbox/ <---- templates for porting to new platform goes here.
