There was another bug (introduced by yours truly) completely unrelated to 
the changes made yesterday. Martin fixed the bug on the 18th, but if you 
had already a broken corlib installed, you couldn't be able to build.

Almost always, using the released mono package to compile the new corlib
will work: people that use cvs should always have the latest release
installed somewhere to bootstrap.
