Re: [Pnet-developers] [bug #14876] .NET and Mono allow mutation of initonly fields via reflection

IL_CONFIG_ECMA=y will be in all profiles if the patch is OK'd.. expect 
the same behavior as before the patch until someone changes/creates a 
new profile that uses this option.

The default behavior is currently incompatible in that respect.
