[Mono-dev] No tail call optimization for virtual calls

Hi

Mono 1.9.1 does no seem to "optimize" tail virtcall's. As a consequence, I
get a stackoverflow.
Using Microsoft .NET 2.0 is works as expected.
I have attached the IL source code (no C# since C# does not support tail
optimization AFAIK).

Is it a known problem or shall I fill a bug report?

The reason why I would like to play with this is simple: continuations
experiments. I just thought about that yesterday, and I wanted to know
whether it would be feasible or not.

Regards,
Laurent Debacker.
