Is there still a stack VM (PharoS for ARM, 5.0) ?

I downloaded the one you linked (http://files.pharo.org/vm/pharoS/raspbian/latest.zip), but it was a pre-spur VM, so I had to use 50496 from the "preSpur" folder.
It didn't recognize the -nodisplay parameter, so I had to open image normally to do tinyBenchmarks.
Performance was fairly bad compared to Cog Spur (34M bytecodes, 2M sends), and in general not suitable for live editing of a Pharo image at all (8 seconds to open a browser, etc), so if a newer does not exist, I doubt it makes sense to spend effort creating one that reads Spur images other than as an intellectual exercize with a Cog VM available. 

Cheers,
Henry
