+Summary: IronPython 0.7.5 fails due to missing Dictionary method
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+Starting up the IronPython console results in this error:
+
+** (IronPythonConsole.exe:406): WARNING **: Missing method TryGetValue in assembly /
+Volumes/Data/Users/mtaylor/Desktop/IronPython-0.7.5/bin/IronPython.dll, type IDictionary`2
+
+I took a look at the IronPython source code and found a Dictionary object is being instantiated 
+like this:
+
+    this.data = new Dictionary<object, object>();
+
+Then, it is being called like this:
+
+    return data.TryGetValue(key, out value);
+
+IronPython requires some .NET 2.0 features.  I guess that this must be one of them?
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Download IronPython 0.7.5 
+   http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=03238F44-D75F-4
+E82-BDBB-6F6FDCA011F0&displaylang=en
+2. Unpack it
+3. cd into IronPython-0.7.5/bin
+4. run:
+   mono IronPythonConsole.exe
+
+Additional Information:
+
+I am running Mono 1.1.7 on both Suse 9.2 and OS X 10.4.1
