Upgrade to FSharp.Core 4.x? #140

Any plans to upgrade to F#4 - and what's the potential knock on effects of doing something like this?

As far as libraries are concerned, my opinion is that upgrading to F# 4.0 is a big no-no. F# 4.0 adds a big range of APIs to core which if used will render the library unusable in older runtimes, even with binding redirects set. If you'll notice though all worker executables/roles have been intentionaly moved to F# 4.0. This ensures that MBrace clusters will work with any core version the client might be using.
