[Mono-osx] Building mono-1.1.18 20061018

[Allan Hsu]

I already sent in the following patch last week to the mono-devel  
list, as well as libgc upstream. I added a #define to gc_priv.h  
called GC_MACH_THREAD_STATE_FLAVOR and replaced usages of  
MACHINE_THREAD_STATE with it. Apologies for not CCing this list.
