Summary:  Some classes in XPath have wrong signatures for Clone()

Original Submission:  I was trying to help someone compile Gtk# using cscc 
instead of mcs, and I got an error in parser/gapi-fixup.cs, line 85:

XPathNodeIterator path_iter = parent_iter.Current.Clone ().Select (expr);

gapi-fixup.cs:85: called object is not a method or delegate
gapi-fixup.cs:85: called object is not a method or delegate
gapi-fixup.cs:85: incompatible types in assignment: no conversion from `invalid 
type' to `System.Xml.XPath.XPathNodeIterator'

where parent_iter is an XPathNavigator. The problem is pnetlib's version of 
XPathNavigator has the signature

public abstract Object Clone();

but the Rotor docs indicate the signature should be

public abstract XPathNavigator Clone();

I believe that a similar problem may occur with the Clone() methods in our 
XPath classes.
