This issue continues to affect the 2.4 release (compiled from source with
default configure options) on OpenSolaris 2008.11 snv_111b. 

Playing with the stack size parameter indicates that a hard stack limit (soft
limit is ignored) greater than 128MB causes the compiler to fail with "error
CS8032: Internal compiler error during parsing"

As a workaround, issuing the following command in the shell will allow the
compile to complete successfully:
prctl -s -v 128MB -t privileged -n process.max-stack-size $$

[run make here]

mcs will continue to emit the following warning, but it seems to have no
adverse effects: GC Warning: Large stack limit(134217728): only scanning 8 MB

When complete, remove the previously set stack limit again with:
prctl -x -t privileged -n process.max-stack-size $$
