[Mono-list] mcs 0.26 fails on Windows

[Varga Zoltan]

                                         Hi All,

   I can reproduce this on my Win2K machine with a recent
snapshot.
This bug may only affect people in certain timezones. Here
is a small
testcase:

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
using System;

class Hello {

        public static void Main (String[] args) {
                TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone.GetDaylightChanges
(2003);
        }
}
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

It also looks like to be a runtime problem. If I run this using
./mono.exe hello.exe
it fails.
But when I run it using --trace, it runs.

                                                       Zoltan
