It's been awhile since I posted a new Mac VM, 3.8.6b6 was the last one
posted. Over the last few months VM builders have migrated to 32/64bit
logic, changed from CVS to SVN, moved from sourceforge to other
servers, and I've been busy with Tk4/Sophie.

However I'll shortly post 3.8.8b2 for OS-X and OS-9 (within 24 hours).
The change log follows, and I'd suggest people on os-9 or earlier
confirm the VM works as expected, plus of course testing under OS-X

I will update my main work machine to os-x 10.4.1 in a few days and
build a new VM with GCC 4.x and attempt to address any OS-X Tiger
issues. (Of which the 60 frames per second, may be an issue?)

performance
