I am with you on that Ron. But I need a technical solution to manage those things.
Good intensions are one thing, but how do we do that?

Examples: [https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm/pull/18/commits]

primitiveUpdateGZipCrc32
-	self cCode:'' inSmalltalk:[zipCrcTable := CArrayAccessor on: GZipWriteStream crcTable].
+	self cCode:’' inSmalltalk:[zipCrcTable := CArrayAccessor on: CRC crc32Table].

primitiveGetAttribute

-		attribute := Smalltalk getSystemAttribute: attr.
+		attribute := Smalltalk vm getSystemAttribute: attr.

CogVMSimulator>> initialize
-	'Display has not yet been installed' asDisplayText form.
+	'Display has not yet been installed' asMorph imageForm.


ioRelinquishProcessorForMicroseconds
-	Processor activeProcess == Project uiProcess ifTrue:
+	Processor activeProcess == UIManager default uiProcess ifTrue:


And so far, I only fixed trivial things. Still need to figure out what is going wrong with more recent Pharo images.

Best regards
Stefan
