[Mono-dev] Chiron.exe on mono 2.4.2.1 crashes with System.TypeLoadException

[Jimmy Schementi]

My fault, I can run Chiron from ironruby-0.6 also, though recent  
builds of it are busted. I'm getting on a plane soon, but when I land  
I can look at the diff between 0.6 and now (unless someone else wants  
to on github).

Any comments on my recent post to the moonlight list, or should I also  
send that here? That issue is most important, as even without Chiron I  
can't get a DLR app running in Moonlight.

Thanks!
