Yeah, this is a known bug with mono-1.1.7 and PPC, and the reason that all the
mono-1.1.x were marked -ppc recently by dholm.

You can see the upstream bug at http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=74816
, which seems to propose a few fixes, but nothing concrete. I've added myself as
a CC on that bug, so hopefully I can catch if there's a resolution in SVN that
we can steal for our 1.1.7 package and then get ppc added back to keywords.

Leaving this open for now to track this.

Patch to hopefully fix things on PPC

Ok, here's a patch, as posted to the Ximian bug, that might fix things. Patch
to the mono-1.1.7-r1.ebuild following.

Created an attachment (id=60488) [details]
Diff to mono-1.1.7-r1.ebuild

Ok, here's a diff to the current mono-1.1.7-r1.ebuild that applies the
previously posted patch to mono.

Can you please apply the patch to your portage version of the ebuild, drop the
other patch into the files/ dir, ebuild foo digest, try emerging mono again,
and report back? Thanks.

I've just commited this fix to mono-1.1.7-r1, after getting confirmation from
dholm that the fix worked for him. Marking this FIXED, please feel free to
re-open if the changes commit still don't work. Thanks.

The patch works for me too. 
Thanks a lot! :)
