[MonoDevelop] Fwd: attempting git source compile of monodevelop (master)

[Jonathan Ballard]

These steps are quite old and not-stable beyond static library builds:

"""
libtoolize: Consider adding `-I m4' to ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am.
Running aclocal  ...
Running autoheader...
Running automake --foreign  ...
Running autoconf ...
Running ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-compile-warnings
--prefix=/home/jsr/local ...
"""

If we unwrap parts of gnome inclusions, VS project file compatibility, and
GCC dissembly (except for LLVM codepaths), we could replace the entire
build above with more recent versions of mono and code.

Despite said "dependency hell" of *SourceView, the minimal build option is
desirable. It challenged developers that rather use VI or Notepad++;
because they want their ideas written down and typed out before it is lost
to ANY build complexities .
