I would use the Windows names for the libraries, and we can then ship
the mono configuration file with mappings from the Windows names to the
Unix names.

This is because we can do the dll remapping on the Mono runtime,
something that can not be done on Windows.  Since the flexibility is
available on our side it makes sense to do this.
