Congrats!
Now some notes:
*) you used 1.0.5 to make the changes: could you port them
over to 1.1.4 (to be released shortly) or better yet to the
current svn version?
*) genmdesc needs to be built as part of the build process,
since it depends on the currently defined opcodes etc. Using an 
old version may make the build fail. This is less of a problem for
monoburg which changes much more rarely.
*) The changes to mini-exceptions.c: it's not enough to comment
out the code, since it would make stack walking crash: luckily
it's not a feature that gets used for simple tests, but you'll
need to find a way to implement the missing bits.
