Wondering if there is an update to the instructions currently on  
[ironruby.net](http://ironruby.net)?

I’ve downloaded the latest stable build of Mono and trying to use the  
latest SVN of IronRuby but it doesn’t want to compile. Even reverting  
to r112 like the instructions said doesn’t work.

I downloaded the patches from  
[http://sparcs.kaist.ac.kr/~tinuviel/download/IronRuby](http://sparcs.kaist.ac.kr/~tinuviel/download/IronRuby)  
but I get the following errors:

Is this problem related to Mono or Ironruby?

I haven’t tried to build under Mono for some time now. I know that the  
rake compile task is currently broken in r160 - that’s the task that  
you’ll need to use under Mono. Once RubyConf is done, we’ll spend some  
time fixing the Rakefile and verifying that everything works correctly  
under Mono.

Thanks,  
-John

Really? Reverting back to old versions like r112 does work for me. Can  
you detail  
what you have done?
