Somebody could suggest the right way to do XML in Squeak.:)

Just port the stupid parser in the PkgLoader.st file. There is not much more than you need from PkgLoader.st since most of it is needed to support looking into multiple directories, loading non-star packages (the distribution of kernel/*.st is done via a non-star package).

You can just care about .star files, which are always ZIP files (uncompressed). Even stuff that you download off smalltalk.gnu.org is converted to .star, the checkout directory is used only as a cache.
