Sweet! I love the "Thar be Dragons!" warning. :)

There are a lot of moving parts to it. The license list gives some
indication of the major repositories. These are the ones Tomas is
talking about:

https://github.com/dotnet/corefx - MIT
https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr - MIT
https://github.com/dotnet/sdk - MIT
https://github.com/dotnet/cli -
https://www.microsoft.com/net/dotnet_library_license.htm

https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang - Microsoft
https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn - A2
...
---

If you're looking to get your barrings, I re-found an awesome doc with
lots of great links:
https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/blob/master/Documentation/README.md

This also links to the original core 1.x FreeBSD build guide. I lost
this one a while back and could never find it. :(

Tomas, from reading through your instructions,  there seems to be two
obstacles and they are both managed code?
- corelib - dotnet/coreclr/src/mscorelib seems to be the corelib you
are talking about?
- corefx - managed code

If that's true, then we should definitely give mono a shot at bringing
those up. I'm downloading the dotnet/coreclr now.
