[mono-vb] Mono VB Compiler With SharpDevelop

Hi Scott,

MonoDevelop already uses mbas, but it's support for VB projects has
stalled some eons ago, so I'm not sure how much coding/testing is
needed to have it fully working.

Sharpdevelop, uses vbc by default, but I guess that it may be
configurable somewhere or some, hopefully small, recoding of the
language binding is in order.

As both projects are open-source it is at least feasible to make them
use any compiler. AFAIK, VS.NET VB support module has vbc hardcoded
in, and is unavailable to be changed.

:)

Have Fun,

As I'm currently working a lot with Java and even fixing Java VMs
(JamVM/Kaffe) and GNU Classpath code, I think I may partly borrow the
title (Javaman) from my friend Bruno Souza and become the
MonoNJavaMan. Yeah, I may currently be crazier than usual...
