Eliot Miranda uploaded a new version of VMMaker to project VM Maker:
http://source.squeak.org/VMMaker/VMMaker.oscog-cb.1648.mcz

==================== Summary ====================

Name: VMMaker.oscog-cb.1648
Author: cb
Time: 18 January 2016, 11:59:22.027 am
UUID: c46bfd06-cfad-408f-a561-675b25295f41
Ancestors: VMMaker.oscog-eem.1647

Fixed a compilation problem.

Looks like the Stack VM works fine with immutability. Although I am not sure as the VM I generate right now is not very stable (but it doesn't seem to be related to immutability, when I disable it I have the same crashes).
