ISSUES
1. [New issue] Lib/config directory not present in zip distribution.
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/31417
User vernondcole has proposed the issue:
"When starting a newly downloaded IronPython, a traceback occurs due to a
missing directory.

There is no config folder in the zip file.

2. [New issue] Incorrect information message given for "exit" command on Linux
systems
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/31418
User vernondcole has proposed the issue:
"When running IronPython in console mode on a Linux system, if a user types
"exit", she is given a suggestion which is valid on Windows only.
Following the suggestion causes the IPy session to be backgrounded, where the
intent is for it to be stopped.
In the console session below, <ctrl-z> was typed when prompted, which sends IPy
to the background.
The IPy session is then returned to the forground using an "fg" command, and
exited using sys.exit.
Then CPython is started.
Then <ctrl-d> is typed when prompted.
<console dump>
>>> sys.version
'2.7.1 (IronPython 2.7.1 (2.7.0.40) on .NET 4.0.30319.1)'
>>> exit
'Use Ctrl-Z plus Return to exit'
>>>

</console dump>
The prompt should be changed to agree with the CPython when os.name == 'posix'

3. [New issue] console mode "exit()" command does not work.
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/31419
User vernondcole has proposed the issue:
"The "exit()" command is not effective.
In the console session below, the user types "exit" and is informed of the
correct way to do what she wishes.
[Note: another issue has been opened for the inappropriate Windows-based
information.]
If the user tries the correct command, with parenthesis, a traceback is
produced rather than an exit accomplished.
The same operation is then attempted using CPython for an example of what is
expected to happen.
<console dump>
IronPython 2.7.1 (2.7.0.40) on .NET 4.0.30319.1
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> exit

>>>
>>> exit()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: str is not callable
>>> sys.exit()

Python 2.7.2+ (default, Aug 16 2011, 07:29:45)

Use exit() or Ctrl-D (i.e. EOF) to exit
>>> exit()
vernon@dlc-ubuntu:/windows/Downloads/IronPython/IronPython-2.7.1-Beta2$
</console dump>
"exit()" should call sys.exit(), rather than attempt returning a string.

4. [New issue] IPy version string somewhat misleading.
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/31420
User vernondcole has proposed the issue:
"The version string for IronPython includes the word 'on' which could lead one
to confusion as to the actual CLR version in use.
In the following session, the CLR is mono, not .NET.
Perhaps the wording should be changed to 'for' rather than 'on'.
