[Mono-winforms-list] Solaris 10 - libgdiplus troubles...

[Laurent Debacker]

Okay, it worked, libgdiplus compiled just fine!

Shall I fill a bug report, and give the solution provided by Timotheus Pokorra?
Or does the maintainer of libgdiplus read this list?

Now my adventure will continue with the compilation of mono....

And thank you very much Timotheus!!! :D
