[Mono-dev] Still seeking contractor to adding Tizen support to Mono

[Sergey Zhukov]

You're right setting the CXX variable is the most preferable way to
compile. By the way, why mono always requires g++ compiler? 

find -name *.cpp

./libgc/gc_cpp.cpp
./mono/mini/mini-llvm-cpp.cpp
./mono/tests/mixed-mode/MixedModeLibrary/MixedModeLibrary.cpp
./mono/tests/mixed-mode/MixedModeLibrary/NativeApp.cpp
./mono/tests/mixed-mode/MixedModeApp/MixedModeApp.cpp
./mono/tests/mixed-mode/PureMsvcrtApp/PureMsvcrtApp.cpp
./mono/tests/mixed-mode/MixedModeMsvcrtApp/MixedModeMsvcrtApp.cpp

tests/mixed-mode are run in windows environment only
gc_cpp.cpp and gc_cpp.cc look like orphaned files which were added 10
years ago and have never changed since that

only mini-llvm-cpp.cpp requires C++ compiler really but if mono is
building without llvm support why it asks for g++? 

Maybe I missed something.
