when looking for a c# compiler, the configure script just looks for an existing program called mcs, but on solaris, /usr/ccs/bin/mcs exists and is not a c# compiler at all. I though it would be nice to check wether the detected program is indeed a c# compiler or to add a special test for solaris. Otherwise make will fail on the non-existing csant program.
Since --without-mcs solves the problem, it is not too bad.
