[Mono-docs-list] Re: monodoc compilation: assembler.exe on ecma334 fails

[Jeff Seifert]

I was experiencing this problem recently myself.  I think it was being 
caused by my previous installation of monodoc-0.6.  Once I uninstalled 
the old version, I was able to compile monodoc-0.7 without problems.

Give that a shot and see if it works for you.
