The bundled one did not work on Solaris/amd64 recently, and I was told  
it would not be fixed in Mono's libgc. It may work on Solaris/x86,  
apart from the warning.

The stack size warning by itself would be harmless - however, many  
scripts check for stdout/stderr output and fail when that warning is  
emitted before the expected text. So it needs to be suppressed, either  
by patching Mono's libgc or by using an upstream Boehm GC.

I believe I encountered issues when trying to compile MonoDevelop and  
its dependencies, for instance.
