Q: Why some stuff is not linked out ?
A: In most case this is because:
a) the BCL uses it internally
b) the mono runtime depends on the type, methods, class layout
= mscorlib.dll =
System.Security.PermissionSet
* Assembly has (3) fields of that type
* mscorlib.xml preserve all fields from Assembly (object-internals.h)
* code is "stubified" by the linker
System.Security.Policy.ApplicationTrust:
* Used as a field in AppDomainSetup;
* Field also exists in unmanaged code (domain-internals.h);
* mscorlib.xml preserve all fields from AppDomainSetup
* only the default .ctor remains and is stubified by the linker
System.Security.Policy.Evidence
* Used by AppDomain.Load[Assembly]
* Used by Assembly.LoadWithPartialName overloads
* code is "stubified" by the linker
= System.dll =
System.Text.RegularExpressions.*
* Included because there is 2 regex in UriParser
