I'll be reviewing and merging the various changes into the repository, but
they are not currently on a branch, so they are not systematically
available.

I think you are getting a bit ahead of where we are right now.  There is no
running linux port yet.  The strongtalk sources are not 'bootstrappable'
right now; the parser is written in strongtalk and thus needs a running
image to start with.
