In the previous thread I mentioned a problem in ProcessVariable I encountered
while trying out VisualGST. Turns out I was mistaken, the problem was triggered
by something else, as I wasn't able to reproduce it after a fresh rebuild.
Still, the bug is there for sure: the `valueIfAbsent` never evaluates the block
it gets as an argument. Here's the patch:
diff --git a/kernel/ProcEnv.st b/kernel/ProcEnv.st

(the method comment should probably also be changed a bit, now that I look at
it...)
Best regard,
