[Mono-list] Build fails on AppDomain because of AssemblyBuilder constructor

[Sean MacIsaac]

Paolo,

You have it exactly right.  The reason that those things are excluded is
because of testing, which only runs in Microsoft's framework.  I've got
NUnit compiling referencing only our corlib, and I'm currently adding
implementations to the stub functions that are needed by it.
