Tried that and got the following errors:

**Error**: You must have `autoconf' installed to compile Mono.
Download the appropriate package for your distribution,
or get the source tarball at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/

**Error**: You must have `libtool' installed to compile Mono.
Get ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libtool-1.2d.tar.gz
(or a newer version if it is available)

**Error**: You must have `automake' installed to compile Mono.
Get ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/automake-1.3.tar.gz
(or a newer version if it is available)

so I downloaded autoconf and tried to install it but discovered I don't have
make installed. So I downloaded make. Trying to configure make failed
because it couldn't find my copy of gcc which I knew I had because I have
Xcode installed. I found the location of the gcc in the Xcode package and
told configure to use it and that gave me the following error:

"configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs."

Honestly at my wits end!
