Finally got time to look at this again:

I tried gmake instead, but now I get this far with xsp-0.4:

	yada# gmake
	gmake -C test
	gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/home/erik/xsp-0.4/test'
	mcs /r:System.Web.dll /target:library tabcontrol.cs

	Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: A null value 
	was found where an object instance was required

after which the process hangs. I got xsp from cvs instead, but gmake outputs 
this:

	yada# gmake
	gmake -C test
	gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/home/erik/xsp/test'
	mcs /r:System.Web.dll /target:library tabcontrol.cs
	Bus error (core dumped)
	gmake[1]: *** [tabcontrol.dll] Error 138
	gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/home/erik/xsp/test'
	gmake: *** [all] Error 2

I'm no expert, but it seems like one of the tests fails to compile. So I tried 
removing references to "test" in the Makefile, but instead gmake outputs:

	yada# gmake
	gmake -C server
	gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/home/erik/xsp/server'
	mcs /debug+ /debug:full /nologo /r:System.Web.dll /out:server.exe
	AssemblyInfo.cs IApplicationHost.cs XSPApplicationHost.cs
	MonoWorkerRequest.cs XSPWorkerRequest.cs Tracing.cs server.cs

	Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: A null value was 
	found where an object instance was required

and the process hangs. I'm stuck again :-\ Hints are very welcome!

Using FreeBSD 5.1, mono-0.24, boehmgc-6.2.a6 and gmake-3.80 from ports.

Kind regards, Erik
