Hello
I found strange MONO behavior during GAC assembly resolving. 

Here is my test case: 
1.Download NPGSQL2 beta 4 compile it by MS csc compiler (NOTE this assembly has
version 1.98.4)
2.Compile test program which use npgsql assembly i mentioned above
3.Install npgslq into the MONO GAC by gacutil -i npgsql.dll
4.Run test program
5 Found that MONO runtime loads NPGSQL assembly from
GAC\Npgsql\2.0.0.0__5d8b90d52f46fda7 instead installed
GAC\Npgsql\1.98.4.0__5d8b90d52f46fda7

Is this behavior by design?
