[Vm-dev] [OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm] Check sanity of curled gzip data (#326)

[Eliot Miranda]

Hi Boris,  I’m wondering if the right thing to do is to build a vm that includes the processor simulator plugins in the relevant ../build.* directories.  The makefiles are set up to build the processor simulator plugins only if the support libraries (the processor simulator code itself) have been built, so by default the CI does not build them.

  I would prefer that we set up a CI to build the processor simulator plugins and download and install these as part of the getGoodSpur*VM scripts, but that’s work I haven’t found time for and at least on Mac installing a plugin in the .app will break the signature and provoke a warning on launch.  So building a vm in place, while slow and not yet automated might be the right approach.  It does mean running the conf.COG scripts and make in the relevant build.*/{bochsx86,bochsx64,gdbarm32} directories, none of which is as smooth as it might be.  What do you think?
