Hello,

	Here are some patches to have mcs build mscorlib instead of corlib, and
to remove the corlib/mscorlib aliasing from the runtime. I would
appreciate it if some people could test, but please dont apply these
patches to your main install. Changing th corlib name can make it very
hard to bootstrap.
	
	You will need to download my mono-lite to bootstrap with because mcs
will try to load mscorlib not corlib. 

mcs patches: http://primates.ximian.com/~jackson/mcs.diff
mono patches: http://primates.ximian.com/~jackson/mono.diff
mono-lite:
http://primates.ximian.com/~jackson/monocharge-lite-20031013.tgz

Brief instructions for patching (if you dont understand please dont
try):
in mono:
patch -p0 < mono.diff
make install

untar mono-lite and put exes in <install>/bin/ and libs in
<install>/lib/

in mcs:
patch -p0 < mcs.diff
make install

Thanks,
Jackson
