[antlr-interest] Compile errors with CSharp2 Target

Hi,

The problem lies in the fact the for current state of the CSharp2 target I didn't release any binaries because of a bug which kills the execution of an example grammar. I'm currently backporting the CSharp3 runtime to isolate if the error is in the runtime or in the templates for the code generation. In the meantime use CSharp3 instead. It only misses debugging support via ANTLRworks, which I hope to add to the backport again. Sorry for the less-than-ideal situation. :(
