[IronPython] IronPython 2.7 RC 2 Available

[Tristan Zajonc]

Jeff,

I believe this can be solved by changing line 420 to:

        if os.name in ('nt', 'os2') or sys.platform == 'cli':
            _init_non_posix(_CONFIG_VARS)

And changing the default scheme from posix_prefix to nt, which seems to make
sense given layout:

def _get_default_scheme():
    if sys.platform == 'cli':
        return 'nt'
    if os.name == 'posix':
        # the default scheme for posix is posix_prefix
        return 'posix_prefix'
    return os.name

The REPL opens fine after these changes and the results of
sysconfig.get_path, get_platform, etc, look reasonable.  Sorry to send these
via email rather than GitHub.

I also think http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/28904 has also been
fixed in Mono trunk.
