Just for information. There is IL backend for LCC available from the LCC page.
I think it was mentioned on the list, since it's there for several months now.
It's "just" a C-to-IL compiler though, nothing like Managed Extentions (that
would be Managed "C" in this case not "C++").

It's possible to run VC++ generated apps under Mono though.
