For those who can't modify the vm lisp (e.g. unprivileged users), the
following is equivalent and works with emacs versions 18 and 19.

(setq vm-mode-hooks 
      '(lambda () 
        (if (equal (substring emacs-version 0 2) "19")
         (defun vm-overlay-keymap (src-map dest-map) 
           (use-local-map (append src-map dest-map))))))
