+Summary: Try to run Process.Start () with mono 
+
+It would be nice to make Process.Start () try to run the executable with Mono.
+
+When running xbuild on Mono/windows I can't run scripts. When I try to
+execute the executables (gmcs.exe) with Process.Start () it runs it with
+.NET  Framework. gmcs crashes because it expects some mono specific types.
+
+I can't add "path/bin/mono.exe" before every command as not everything is a
+CLR executable. Maybe I could add a hack that would check PE header and
+automatically append path/bin/mono.exe but I think that it's something that
+class library should have. (It can also be Mono.Diagnostics.something)
+
+Of course Mono/Linux should also run .exe files with Mono runtime.
