[Mono-list] OS X build weirdness

Hi,

I've been wrestling with the code for a couple of days trying to get 
Mono built on OS X using code from anoncvs.  I've tweaked my own copy 
of mono-build.sh so that it knows about fink (and so it knows not to 
build with gc), and now I can at least get the mono/ tree to build 
without incident.

However, I can't seem to get the mcs tree to build.  I pulled down 
mcs.exe and corlib.dll from my Linux server (which is running the 
0.24-1 redhat-7.3 rpms), installed them in the appropriate places, and 
modified the mcs script to point to mint.  All I get now is:

** (/usr/bin/mcs.exe:24622): WARNING **: Could not find assembly System
Can not open image /usr/bin/mcs.exe
make[1]: *** [mcs.exe] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 1

(I get that right after the makefile tries to fire up mcs.exe with mint 
for the first time).

Is this supposed to work yet?  Am I doing something wrong?  I don't 
need it to even work that well, I'd just like to get to the point where 
mint can has enough standard library support to actually run some test 
code.

Thanks,
Trevor
