Hi,

Several have reported that the tarballs available from
mono.ximian.com/daily are not buildable.

This is caused by some limitations of the tar format we're using.  We
must use this limited format to support some older distros.

To alleviate this I've begun to use the zip file format for the source
distribution instead.  (This is created by running make dist-zip instead
of make dist).

monolite and monocharger will remain in tar.gz format, but the source
download is in .zip format.

Wade
