 This may allow us to bootstrap with CSC.

+I don't want to go to philosophical discussion, but I have one more 
+comment: As I see this bug is about csc.exe support. So we should 
+decide whether we want to support csc.exe. If we want to support 
+this should be fixed and closed as FIXED. If we don't want to 
+support csc.exe we should close it as WONTFIX.
+
+If you say that this is because a csc.exe bug I believe you. But I 
+think Microsoft is not going to officially support the bootstrap of 
+corlib so this is a problem that we should work around if we want.
+
+I'm not sure whether we need csc.exe bootstrap. I prefer to use mcs 
+as it provides full compatibility with Linux. My only problem was 
+that before r48695 building mcs tree failed on Windows. No that's 
+fixed so I'm happy.:)
