On Friday I did some optimizations to our corlib and the compile time
got back to less than 3 minutes (still run with the interpreter).
Compiling it with the jit should take about 30-40 seconds.
Our corlib is about twice as large as the compiler in lines of code, so
I guess it will take about twice as long to compile.
The compiled binary runs now, at least well enough to complete "mcs --help":-)
