You either need a more recent version of Mono, or I could modify NAnt to allow it to compile on that version of Mono. I don't know if you'd consider

I'll look into upgrading Mono on Clarus. Using nightly builds is not what Gump is about: it merely tries to compile the latest, perhaps-not-so-greatest of everything, satisfying dependencies with the development trunk of that moment. It uses that to find out when/where things break at the earliest possible moment.


Looking at the code that fails on Mono, it looks like the problem is that Mono is detected as supporting .NET 2 but is missing a framework method expected to be there. I'm guessing that it would either successfully compile on something earlier that was not detected as .NET 2 or something later that had the missing method. Do you know of a later version of Mono that NAnt does build on? Updating the Mono version seems to be the right direction as I'm guessing .NET 1 is slowly fading (though I'm not in that world very much).

As for vmgump, previous statements suggest it is pretty precarious and I doubt that the benefit would be worth the risk to touch Mono on it until the next major externally driven change. For log4net, as long as we had NAnt and log4net building on Claris and ideally with nag messages sent to the appropriate mailing lists, things would be good.
