+Summary: MCS not reporting missing assembly correctly
+
+I did a hand compilation of XSP on Windows with mono-0.91.99-win32-4.exe, 
+this way: 
+ 
+C:\Documents and Settings\Tetsuo\My Documents\xsp\server>mcs 
+IApplicationHost.c 
+ InitialWorkerRequest.cs MonoWorkerRequest.cs Tracing.cs 
+XSPApplicationHost.cs 
+SPWorkerRequest.cs server.cs -o xsp.exe 
+ 
+And I get this error: 
+ 
+MonoWorkerRequest.cs(98) error CS0246: Cannot find type 
+`SimpleWorkerRequest' 
+XSPWorkerRequest.cs(25) error CS0246: Cannot find type 
+`MonoWorkerRequest' 
+Compilation failed: 2 error(s), 0 warnings 
+ 
+ 
+That happens because I didn't put -r:System.Web.dll as a reference. Why 
+it didn't report the missing assembly instead of failing silently?
