[Mono-list] EntryPointNotFoundException: map_Mono_Posix_PollEvents

[Shaun Jackman]

To be safe, I've removed all versions of Mono. I then installed mono
1.0.1 from Debian to bootstrap. I did make clean, cvs up, autogen.sh,
make bootstrap, make install. I then removed mono 1.0.1. Now, my
application compiles fine, but it gives exceptions when I try to run
it [1].
While I was investigating, I tried to recompile Managed.Windows.Forms.
It fails because it cannot find AccessibleEvents.cs [2]. Do you have
any pointers?

Thanks again,
Shaun
