[Mono-dev] Build error in svn

UTF-8 should ignore invalid character representations like "é" (0xe9). BTW
the code compiles with csc.exe with code page set to UTF-8
(csc -codepage:65001 -target:library ComIStreamMarshaler.cs) altough I got
error when I used "é" in identifiers. But UTF8Encoding should simply ignore
invalid character representations. I think other code pages are parsing all
bytes as well so there should be no problems using non-ascii characters
after // because it's very unlikely to parse these characters as line break
and any other characters will be ignored.

The above things are regarding the behaviour of mcs and UTF8Encoding not the
source files of Mono.

Maybe we should use UTF-8 for source files.

Run the attached code on the system you try to compile mcs tree. And tell us
the results. (It prints some redundant information but why not. :)

Please tell the newbie how to determine what encoding I am using.

Thanks.

Or might be bugs in Encoding class if the build fixes after my patch.
If so please tell us what locale you are using, Jonathan.
