ChangeLog =========
21 June 2017: -------------
* Succeed!!
I made [iceberg](http://github.com/pharo-vcs/iceberg) to work on 64bits!
Now, I need to promote a new VM as stable (and probably backported it to Pharo 6.0)
* After 1.5 days still working on 64bits version of [iceberg]( http://github.com/pharo-vcs/iceberg) and that annoying malloc crash. Last idea was the believing something is wrong with sizes and marshallings so I verified all:
* I reviewed all structures and callbacks. * I took a look to each function call.
I got some differences that needed to be fixed and perticularly a lot of +size_t+ that were wrongly mapped as +FFIUInt32+ and I have some movement: it is not crashing anymore on malloc (which is a relief), but is still crashing someplace later.
Great news. Thanks for your persistence. cheers -ben P.S. And shows the benefit in an open source project of having paid engineers to work on the hard stuff.
