Hi Eliot

Thanks for the note about the 64/bit Squeak of 2008 on page

    http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/708

I just deleted that reference to a 64 bit version no longer known. And
added 'historical'.

I think the most important new information is that OSProcess should be
loaded from Squeak map and just the head version.

Though the page  http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/708 still could need
some improvement it is no longer a disaster I assume and will do a
better job than it did last week ....
