VisualGST still compiles for me on Solaris 11.4 by the way.

Personally I don't use VisualGST and I think the original approach of GNU Smalltalk was rather to use GNU emacs as its code browser.

Other Smalltalk implementations can be complementary.

I think that GNU smalltalk is rather for more command-line oriented (and GNU emacs) style of software development.
