I was using master-next which is probably why I was getting the
compilation errors.  I tried master and it compiles but I get the same
QA Errors that I was originally seeing.  I'm building for an arm
cortex A-9 which may be the reason for these problems.  If you want me
to try anything I'll keep the build on my laptop.

I've managed to get the meta-mono from the Yocto project working now
by hacking pkgdata so it doesn't fail do_rootfs and adding
System.Runtime.Loader.dll to the package.

Cheers,
Martin.
