[Vm-dev] [VM-team] SoundPlugin updates for 64-bit (Mantis 7103)

[John M McIntosh]

Ok, next week I'm somewhat on vacation but was planning to review the 64bit changes I have.  
Some of which are sound related. 

I would also like to push the iphone/64 bit work into the squeakvm svn. I'll need to restructure the 
isqueak svn a bit first to take it back to the original vmmaker tree structure and to "obsolete" the 
older macintosh VM files into a subdirectory.
