[Mono-list] 18-Nov-2001 build broken + TcpListener.AcceptTcpClient() problem + Bug report

My fault.  Dietmar commited a fix shortly afterwards, it should be fixed
in the next snapshot.

Maybe the problem is that you are compiling a different target? 
Currently we only support the compilation of the target for running on
Linux.

You might want to have an `internal' method (this is a method that can
only be called from within the assembly) to "configure" the TcpClient:

internal SetTcpClient (Socket s)
{
	MySocket = s;
}

Thanks for pointing this out.

Yes, they should.  I have commited a fix now.
