The released 0.29 can execute correctly many of the tests in mono/tests,
but not mcs yet. Current cvs has additional fixes.
The status is, basically:
* all integer instructions should work (this includes the IL object
instructions as well)
* all floating point instructions should work, we miss some corner case
handling for NaNs etc

The main things missing are:
* passing structures by value
* register allocation when all the registers are allocated already to
outgoing arguments
* exception handling
* some corner case issues and small features like tail calls.

People willing to help with the port could try to develop additional
test cases as the ones in mini/basic{,-long,-float}.cs to try to expose
more possible bugs in the jit.
