[Cuis-dev] OSProcess fails to load in latest Cuis (Re: Compression and SqueakCompatibility packages fail to load)

[Juan Vuletich]

Hi Folks,

I think it is fair for packages requiring 'SqueakCompatibility' to 
assume they can use FileStream and StandardFileStream. I added them to 
SqueakCompatibility.pck.st.

This makes loading OSProcess and VMMaker again possible. Please post 
further hurdles.

Thanks!
