Not quite accurate, the developer of polymorph integrated it into  
pharo, and did the work of keeping up with pharo.

It loaded into squeak 3.10.2 already,

The only reason it may not load into trunk now is if trunk  
contributors broke something, because evidently its developer doesn't  
have time to keep up with both forks. This is the inevitable scenario  
that forking produces.
