+Summary: mcs /nostdlib is broken
+
+the following command line gives a whole bunch of 'CS0518 predefined type 
+undefined' errors (on linux).
+
+  mcs -nostdlib -r corlib HelloWorld.cs
+
+the equivalent csc.exe command line works fine.
+
+I believe this is due to a more fundamental problem in mcs: you can't 
+reference a corlib.dll that's different from the one used to run mcs.exe. 
+this in turn breaks self-hosting on linux.
