        PostgreSQL installed.  If not please let me, rodrigo, or gonzalo
        know.

2002-05-01  Rodrigo Moya <rodrigo@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: Only look for libgc on the system.  Default to not
        using GC at all, because it doesn't work with the jit.

2002-03-17  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: Add support for building the included boehm GC.

Thu Mar 7 17:19:44 CET 2002 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: detect Boehm GC libs and add --with-gc switch.
        Boehm GC needs to be explicitly enabled since the JIT currently fails
        in some cases with it.

2002-02-27  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * mono/tests/fib.cs: it is now possible to pass a repeat count as

        testing

        new function to test pinvoke

        arguments

        * mono/tests/Makefile.am: display # of passing tests too
        added simple shared library libtest with testing function for
        pinvoke

        libnsl, and/or librt. Also check for inet_pton and inet_aton.

2002-02-13  Jeffrey Stedfast  <fejj@ximian.com>

        * acconfig.h: #undef USE_MONO_MUTEX

        * configure.in: If the system pthread implementation is lacking,
        default to using mono-mutex.

2002-01-14  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * mono/tests/exception6.cs: new tests for ADD_OVF, MUL_OVF
        added tests for SUB_OVF, SUB_OVF_UN

2001-12-21  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * mono/tests/Makefile.am (TESTSRC): disabled stream-writer test

2001-12-21  Aaron Weber  <aaron@ximian.com>

        * doc/faq (A): added a linebreak that was missing and was causing
        a heading to appear badly.

        * configure.in (ACCESS_UNALIGNED): uncommented and modified
        powerpc-*-linux* 
        generate mono/arch/ppc/Makefile

2001-11-26  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * mono/tests/exception3.cs: modified the test to show a bug in the
        current exception handling implementation.

2001-11-13  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: Some more tests for pthread features
        (specifically, glibc 2.1 doesnt define pthread_mutex_timedlock but
        still needs _GNU_SOURCE for PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE)

2001-11-09  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: Try and get large file support, but it's not fatal
        if it's not there (the io-layer just ignores the high word in that
        case.)

        Check for windows builds, and only bother to look for pthreads and
        large files if we're not building for cygwin or native win32.  Not
        having pthread support on Posix systems is now a fatal error.

        * autogen.sh: Fix ACLOCAL_FLAGS - it wasn't being passed to
        aclocal

2001-10-15  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * mono/tests/Makefile.am: removed JITTESTS, simply run all tests for
        target testjit.

        * docs/object-layout: more documentation

Mon Oct 8 20:27:50 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: define NO_UNALIGNED_ACCESS for platforms that
        can't read on unaligned boundaries

2001-10-04  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: Do some deeper checks on pthreads for some of the
        more interesting functions

2001-09-24  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * mono/tests/Makefile.am (testjit): a new target to test the JITer

        * mono/tests/jit-*: added some test for the JITer

2001-09-23  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: Arrange to compile dummy thread support routines
        if pthread isnt available
        
2001-09-23  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        HAVE_PTHREAD_H define in config.h

        * configure.in: Check for libpthread

2001-09-19  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: check for sizeof(void*) and for the architecture.

2001-09-05  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * autogen.sh: Fixed the section that adds $ACLOCAL_FLAGS to the
        aclocal invocation, so putting aclocal files in /usr/local works

2001-08-30  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * *: removed the libffi dependency, mono now compiles on cygwin 

        * mono/wrapper/build-dll: new file.

2001-08-28  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * mono/tests/console.cs: impl.

        * mono/tests/box.cs: impl.

        * mono/tests/stream-writer.cs: impl.

Mon Aug 27 20:24:26 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * mono/tests/*: New test cases, mostly for virtual method dispatch.
        Use make testb for the slow benchmarking programs,

        directories

        exceptions.

2001-08-20  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        to pass make distcheck

        * mono/wrapper/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Include genwrapper.pl

        * configure.in, Makefile.am, runtime/Makefile.am (dist-hook,
        install-data-hook): Added mechanism to distribute and install the
        dll files.

2001-08-20  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * mono/tests/stream.cs: new tests for the Stream class

        * configure.in: I really need LIBTOOL for libmonowrapper.so, so I
        added it again.

2001-08-16  Alex Graveley  <alex@ximian.com>

        * configure.in: Replace AM_PROG_LIBTOOL with AC_PROG_RANLIB. This
        removes libtool dependency on all of Mono.
