I added an update map (update-dtl.587) to capture the configuration of 
trunk prior to the final 6.1 release.

This is mainly help me keep the squeaksource.com/TrunkUpdateStreamV3 
update stream package versions in sync with the actual trunk.

<p>The upcoming release of the OpenSmalltalk VM is looking good. The curren=
