I glanced over the PharoCompatibility packages.

GsPharo-Core:
		I don't see a problem. It is a superset of Squeak behavior
		and when there's overlap, the implementation of this package
		either is identical to Squeak's or equivalent in outcome and
		side effects.

Multilingual-TextConversion:
		A bit tricky. This is some increment and refactorings to the
		classes already in Squeak, and they might be incompatible in their
		implementation. I think in practise this is not much of a problem,
		since these classes are typically used for their effect (Text conversion)
		and the TextConverter API is a strict subset of Squeak's TextConverter
		with IMHO all sensible methods. MultiByteBinaryOrTextStream is a lot
		slimmer than Squeak's but I don't know what this would mean.
		

		PS: TextConverter class>>default is missing, it is sent in
		MultiByteBinaryOrTextStream class>>on:encoding:
		

HTH
