Yes, VM is ready for use.. but image side code are not still adopted for MacOS.
Mac OS using a stack alignment (16 bytes), and if you not aligning the
stack when doing external calls, it leads to exception(s) & crash.
In other platforms there is no any restriction about stack alignment,
and obviously that's why i was not care about it in code generator.
Now i need to rewrite a code generation code to take this into
account. This complicates things a little, and will slow down the
callout code on macs , but i hope not really too much.
So, until then , nativeboost for doing external calls on Macs is not
ready for use.

So, this is a platform-specific (Windows) part of NBOpenGL, and no
wonder, it requires a platform-specific NativeBoost package
specifically for windows.
In same way, there will be NBOpenGL-Mac (or most probably
NBOpenGL-Unix) which will implement platform-specific parts needed for
using OpenGL on it.
