[Mono-dev] Update C5 to v1.1.0

[Marcus Griep]

I did notice these, and I'll go over each of them. I figured that the
priority was getting the verbatim upstream ported over and then fixing
them since the upstream hasn't been maintained since this version was
released.

Several hash table tests depend on DEBUG-mode specific behavior; when
compiled with DEBUG defined, hash tables use a preset seed, but when
compiled for release, hash tables are randomized. The majority of the
failures in the unit tests are due to this.

There is one failure that is due to a method not being implemented in
v1.1.0, hence the "not implemented" exception. I can correct this as
well.

What would be the proper way to proceed here?
