           Summary: Compiling with reflection_emit in enable-minimal
                    causes build error

Fix for documentation.

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.11)

The README does not make it clear that building without reflection will break
compilation of the class libraries. Users will see an error similar to this:
http://www.pastie.org/529465.txt

The build process should either skip the class libraries if this option is
specified or (preferably) state this in the documentation.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compile from tarball:
http://www.mono-project.com/Compiling_Mono_From_Tarball
2. Run ./configure with the option
--enable-minimal=reflection_emit,reflection_emit_save
3. Run `make`
Actual Results:  
=================================================================
Got a SIGABRT while executing native code. This usually indicates
a fatal error in the mono runtime or one of the native libraries 
used by your application.
=================================================================
..
make: *** [all] Error 2

Expected Results:  
No errors.
