Hi Joe,

I don't know that anyone has done it (I haven't seen any chatter about it on the mailing lists or on IRC), but I don't see how it could hurt, providing that any required patches are not too invasive and don't break existing functionality. I'm willing to bet there's someone out there (a Linux ISV, perhaps) who would appreciate knowing that Mono can be compiled against the LSB.

Just my $0.02.
