Is there a place on IronPython's codeplex site that we could document
this information?

Currently, there are many assumptions on:

http://ironpython.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Respository%20Instructions&referringTitle=Home
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Contributing%20to%20IronPython&referringTitle=Home

that suggest that IronPython requires Visual Studio, Windows, etc. I
guess those wiki pages can't be edited by anyone, but if you make a
page off of those, I'd be glad to help maintain this alternate build
and run information. My codeplex id is dsblank.
