new Cog VMs available

...in http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/VM.r3000/

CogVM binaries as per VMMaker.oscog-eem.772/r3000

Add libcrypto and libssl to Linux and Mac builds of the SqueakSSL plugin.

Add the XDisplayControlPlugin and include it (external) and the AioPlugin

(internal) to the linux x86 builds.

Cog:

Fix an abort (relocating call to invalid address) due to an over-zealous check

in relocateCallBeforeReturnPC:by:.  Since we relocate e.g. calls to primitives

there can be no effective range check there-in.

Spur:

Fix fillObj: signedness for objects straddling the midpoint of the address

space (quickly affects linux).  Similarly for routines in pigCompact, to get

asserts correct.

Fix printOopsFrom:to:. for objects up to endOfMemory.

Declare lastFreeChunk and firstFreeChunk correctly.  Fix numberOfForwarders:

and printForwarders: for isForwarded:'s blindness towards freeChunks.

Comment isForwarded: to be clear on the issue.

Have the segment manager pass to sqAllocateMemorySegmentOfSize: the address of

the first large enough gap in the address space, instead of the address of the

end of the first segment.  This allows e.g. linux to use MAP_FIXED and hence

get past a 128Mb limit on mmapping.

Fix bugs in isValidFreeObject: & printFreeTreeChunk: that caused bogus assert

failures.

Remember to include the Spur moniker in the -version output on linux

That will make using the Altitude web framework much easier. 

Providing they work... Any news?
