[Mono-list] error building mono from HEAD on a Debian sid system

[Alan McGovern]

Partial is a keyword introduced in .NET 2.0 so you could span classes over
multiple .cs files (you declare each .cs file as a "partial class"). So it's
a bad idea for it to be used as a variable name. File a bug report i
suppose.
