[Mono-list] CSC Path Hard-Coded

[Nick Drochak]

All,

Well, now I do have CVS access and I've updated the makefiles with my suggestion. It's works for windows, but of course this won't be good enough for making on Linux.  However, there is no csc.exe equivalent yet for Linux, so I guess we worry about it when the time comes.

If you get the latest snapshot, or update from CVS you should get these changes.

Note to Miguel: The compiler, driver.cs I think, still has a hard coded path to C:.  I'll post a bug to remind you.

Enjoy,
Nick
