Of course, even limited testing shows that it's completely broken...
Sorry. No gamma, I will have no time for working on this
for at least a week, maybe longer.

Hi marcus

This is large tasks to release squeak. Relax. I will be back to real  
connection
the 1 of August. May be if some people such as bert want to help
we could go faster and you will be less exhausted.

I can help also if you want just tell me what to do. :)

Thanks.

Right now I guess that we are hurt by the non atomic loading of MC.  
And we will have to experiment with the
systemEditor in the future. For you the best is to work and have fun  
with the new compiler :)
