Comment 17 for bug 619981

This has been fixed in git for mono 2.10 with implementation of OP_MEMORY_BLOCK in the ARM JIT. With this patch, most of the mono test suite passes with only two regressions, but due to issues with the Ubuntu toolchain, mono upstream is requesting that we test against Debian sid to disprove the Ubuntu toolchain as the source of these regressions. Since Ubuntu is shipping 2.6, as are all the support libraries, there is no sane way to test banshee against this version of mono to determine if the regression has been truly passed, but the massive improvement on test suite results is encouraging.

Currently, the in-archive mono is still affected by https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-4.5/+bug/721531 - I have not been able to isolate the workaround committed to our version of mono.
