I'm trying to build a mono application and have came across the problem that
was reported to the mono folks (mono #347359). The symptom is that gmcs hangs
(30 some hours on a 50 line .CS program before I ctrl-C). The authors of the
package that I was trying to build reported the problem to the mono folks and
there is a fix in the svn for mono.
This is not a "gentoo" bug, but a request to see if a patch can be developed.
This does fail on multiple platforms, and is not gentoo specific.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
See the referenced URL for the test case.
Actual Results:
Excessive CPU time and utilization when compiling certain source code using
gmcs
I believe that patch is in mcs/.../expression.cs
