The following test in KernelTests-Exception fails in PharoCore1.1
AllocationTest>>testOneGigAllocation
This test tries to allocate one gig of memory and verify that it either succeeds with the right size of array, or allocation should fail. Instead we get an array of size 0.
Curiously:
(Array new: 1024*1024*1023) size. -> "Warning! Pharo is almost out of memory!" (Array new: 1024*1024*1024) size. -> 0 (Array new: 1024*1024*1025) size. -> 1048576
Array>>new: runs primitive 71, so this appears to be a VM bug.
