 A fix for this is to search MONO_ASSEMBLIES before searching ".".

+Using MONO_ASSEMBLIES for shared libraries is wrong: mono
+uses the operating system's facilities to locate the library.
+If someone installs a lib in $prefix/lib and $prefix/lib is not in
+the search path of the operating system, the installation is wrong.
+You should either install ih /usr/lib where by default libraries
+are searched for, or set the env var if you install on a non-default
+directory.
