Hi Tim,

Very cool, and nice to see Squeak running again on STINU (*). I have to ask - were
you able to do this with an up to date VMMaker with closures etc? I confess that
I was a bit worried that the various changes to VMMaker since the last RISC OS
release would cause a real mess. Hopefully it was not too bad?

I do think that it would be a sad injustice if the RISC OS community was deprived
of the ability to run 64-bit Squeak images on Raspberry Pi. So I think you
should try compiling with -D SQ_VI_BYTES_PER_WORD=8 and see if the resulting
vm can run a 64-bit image like the one here:
