 Depends on the outcome of the discussion below.

 That commit is from the 4.3 branch (I think, I haven't made a full clone, just
browsed on github).

 That commit is dated July 23, 2015, so we can wait a long time still :-)

 But I asked the question because your original patch v1 was made on top of the
4.3 (or rather, master) branch. So there are two possibilities: either it's
still broken on master, or you never actually tested the master branch before
you submitted the patch upstream.

 - If it is not broken on master, then it's better to backport commit
6b5f6dd0434b66062110cf764688975ecfed646f from master.

 - If it is still broken on master, then your patch is good for buildroot, but I
fear there will be other issues lurking in the shadows because it means the
mono_assembly_getrootdir() function doesn't work correctly in buildroot.

 Regards,
 Arnout
