[Mono-list] Mono build failing with error in file reflection.c

[Andreas Schuler]

Hi,

I am using the latest mono release (1.2.3) and I am getting an error 
when I try to build a library of about 70 files. I am using the latest 
version of NAnt. Here's the output:

      [csc] ** ERROR **: file reflection.c: line 1912

Has anyone seen a similar error before? Where is that file reflection.c 
coming from, is this part of mono and if so, what does this assertion 
mean? I have been chasing this problem for a few versions of mono now, 
needless to say that the same lib builds fine in Visual Studio (no 
warnings). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Andreas
