AFAIK, unix/src/plugins is for C sources auto-generated by VM from plugin
primitive code. Low-level hand-generated code goes into unix/plugins/ (for
platform-specific stuff) or Cross/plugins (for generic stuff like tables,
constants, ...). The toplevel cmake script goes into unix/plugins/<plugin>/.

replacement for this plugin? If this is different, you could try under a
different name.
