You did mention testing the previous bugfix on OSX.

And my point is, just because Microsoft makes something available free- 
as-in-beer it's no compelling reason for everyone to actually use it,  
especially not in a multi-platform environment, such as yours  
apparently.

Rather than running Visual Studio 2005 Express and maintaining  
separate project files here or elsewhere, it might work better to  
generate the project files from the Makefiles. The Mono project does  
that with a shell script.
