 the output file is generated.

 So it looks like the compiler first attempts to lookup the key in
 current directory, and when it's not found it attempts an
 output-directory-based lookup.

+Jarek,
+
+You are indeed correct, csc first resolves the filename specified in 
+the AssemblyKeyFile attribute relative to the current directory, and 
+then relative to the directory of the output file.
+
+So, mcs should be changed to also combine the filename specified in 
+the AssemblyKeyFile attribute with the directory of the output file.
+
+I updated the summary of the bug report accordingly. But the repro I 
+described still holds up.
+
+Thanks for correcting me.
