Even more awesome, was your idea of a button in Xcode that sends the
code changes to the virtual machine, and triggers a recompile there.
This would be easiest to implement as a network protocol, so sending
it to a physical computer shouldn't make any difference. Perhaps using
distributed objects?

The biggest challenge probably is syncing the code changes. If
commiting to a repository for every cycle is acceptable, it would be
easily solved that way. Otherwise, maybe Xcode has an API for
detecting changes? I dunno.
