To reproduce, build a strong-named assembly (from source that doesn't contain
the AssemblyFlags attr) with mcs and with csc and then use monodis to look at
the Flags in both.  The one built with mcs will have the Flags set to 0, but
the one built with csc will have the Flags set to 1 (i.e PublicKey).  So, csc
sets it by default.  mcs should do the same in order to be compatible.  The
fact that it doesn't causes problems when using strong-named C# custom controls
from VB.NET web app projects.

Let me know if you need more info.
