[Mono-dev] mono 4.0.0 xbuild won't build project

[Alan]

In the file you linked, a default target is set:
https://github.com/Pash-Project/Pash/blob/master/Pash.proj#L2

That means if you don't specify a target, 'Build' will be executed (in this
case). In the original email i would expect the output to be empty because
no target was specified and no default target was set.

So if there is a bug we will need the actual output (with
/verbosity:diagnostic passed to xbuild) when trying to build the actual
proj file.
