Right. I noticed that too. It seems like SM is too smart for its own
good - you cannot update a file on the server, you have to rename it. Ho
Hum.
After fixing that, I found that my fix still didn't fix it and your
actually looked better and better the longer I stared at it. What
convinced me was when I was running through the debugger to see what
happens when you don't bootstrap - the structure bit musn't be set or
else both the pointer and the non-pointer type look like structs to the
FFI (very, very bad).
Adding that fix and pushing an InstallFFI3 script to SqueakMap finally
solved it. Thanks for your help tracking this down.
Cheers,
