building mono-1.1.x under YDL-4.0.1

[Joseph E. Sacco, Ph.D.]

I have been tracking the mono project:

        http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page

        [from the mono-project web page]
        Mono is a platform for running and developing modern
        applications, based on the ECMA/ISO Standards. Mono can run
        existing programs targeting the .NET or Java frameworks.
        
        Mono is an open source effort led by Novell and is the
        foundation for many new applications.


The GARNOME release of GNOME-2.10.1.1 comes with several mono-based
applications:

* beagle 
An indexing sub-system and search aggregator built on top of the Lucene
indexer.

        http://beaglewiki.org/Main_Page

* f-spot
An application designed to provide personal photo management to the
GNOME desktop. Features include import, export, printing and advanced
sorting of digital images.

        http://www.gnome.org/projects/f-spot/

* muine
A music player for GNOME.

         http://muine.gooeylinux.org/
        
* tomboy
A desktop note-taking application for Linux.

The current GARNOME release uses the "older" mono-1.06 stack [with some
patches for linuxPPC's] because of some unresolved build problems with
the mono-1.1.x stack on linuxPPC's. Recently, progress has been made in
resolving these build problems on linuxPPC's:

        http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=74816


Attached is a patch that will allow mono-1.1.7 to build, test, and run
under YDL-4.0.1.
