I removed nant from my system it seemed it was no longer possible to use it, 
IIRC.

I am using a slightly older copy of Linux Mint and I have mono 6.12 
installed. I just pulled the latest git master code. It compiled without 
error using both xbuild and msbuild. The only differences is that xbuild is 
a lot slower than msbuild and it warns you that you should be using msbuild.

Use 'git status' to see and if you have any files in the tree that should 
not be there. You probably know you need to run ./prebuild.sh if you have a 
clean source tree before you can build the code.
