[Mono-devel-list] Mono locking up during corlib compilation

Yes.  This was a set of extensions done to some of our classes;  So the
right way of fixing this is:

	* Use an old snapshot (say, 2 weeks old)

	* Update your CVS, and use the *working* setup to compile the new
	  corlib, make, make install

	* Compile your CVS runtime, make, make install.

Done.
