Igor: if I understand correctly, there is something extra we should do now
while building the VM (this stuff about FT2Plugin). Since Pharo does not use
FT2Plugin by default since Pharo 1.0 what abut letting the default plugins
as easier as possible for people trying to build VMs?  for those that want
FT2Plugin then they can easily do it. Even Hudson can be configured to do:

| config |
config := CogUnixConfig new.
config externalPlugins: (config externalPlugins copyWith: #MyHackyFirstPlugin).
config generateWithSources.
