Monotouch: 5.1.0 Beta API change in CheckVersion

In Beta 5.1 of MonoTouch the API to check version changed, it is returning an int now.

UIDevice.CurrentDevice.CheckSystemVersion(5,0,0);

I can't find out what the int mean though. Before it was a bool.

It was a mistake and it's noted in the 5.1 release notes:

This is a temporary regression in the Beta, it will be reverted back to the 5.0 signature on the next release.

The idea behind the int version was to enable code to do things like:

if (CheckSystemVersion (5, 0, 1) >= 0) { // set backup bit }
