[Mono-devel-list] Build error on OSX

[Robert Shade]

I've seen this problem myself... it seems that the OSX linker does not 
know what --version-script is.  I also found somewhere that it's 
because --version-script is only for setting specific options for ELF 
binaries... OSX uses Mach.

To fix this, comment out the line in mono/mini/Makefile.am that reads

     libmono_la_LDFLAGS=-Wl,-version-script=$(srcdir)/ldscript

and rerun autogen.sh

Perhaps someone who is better at the auto* toolset could make this 
conditional for OSX?
