It's backward compatible to images long ago, for example when I do my  
final bytecode/second speed test, did I break anything smoke test  
before shipping, I do that with a squeak 3.0 Feb 4th 2001 image.

As for loading the closure changes, well the Pharo folks are busy  
working on and supporting a Pharo Closure image

For the squeak stuff, a 3.11
http://ftp.squeak.org/3.11/

I don't think it's as simple as going to squeakssource and doing a load.
