Well, "attack" is putting it a bit too strongly... as the saying goes,
never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by
incompetence :-)

Not until just now.  My social life this week-end has been interfering
with my email reading ;-)

It looks like the autostubber is for each DLL generating stubs for
every class *referenced* by that DLL, rather than just generating
stubs for classes *defined* by that DLL.  For example array.dll.il.cs
includes a definition for mercury.math.mercury_code, and so does
math.dll.il.cs.  That class is defined in math.dll not array.dll,
so presumably the stub for it should be defined only in math.dll.il.cs.

But I guess that is another problem with generating C# stubs:
C# doesn't permit circular references, does it?
So if the DLLs that you are trying to generate stubs for
have interfaces which depend on each other in a cyclic manner,
as is the case for the Mercury DLLs, it might cause problems.
