[Mono-devel-list] Problems with the new jit and proxies

[LSG]

Pedro,

Your sample doesn't work in MS.NET either, so I can't fix the bug :-). The
source of the problem is that the interfaces are defined in different
assemblies in the client and the server. Usually this is not a problem if
proxies are based on classes (I've just fixed an issue regarding this), but
it seems that with interfaces it doesn't work.
