To be sure I have just confirmed what I was stating in the bugreport:
I installed Ubuntu 9.04 in a new virtual host (virtualbox), then
apt-get build-dep mono && apt-get install mono-devel mono-mcs
wget mono 2.6.4
/configure && make
 does not work.

EXTERNAL_MCS=false make does not work either.

After apt-get remove mono-mcs, mcs becomes unusable, the mono build process
figures that out and only then starts using monolite.

I have no idea if "SVN r155645 from the trunk" works, as I don't know how to
test it - in case of mono checkout of svn repo is different to a tarball...

However I tried mono trunk (r159600) with mono-devel and mono-mcs packages
installed and the build failed stating that I need a newer mcs. I followed
instructions: make get-monolite-latest + EXTERNAL_MCS=false make and it builds
ok.

Actually, I have no more interest in resolving this bug (I am no longer using
too old mono-mcs on any machine). However, I can test your fixes, if you want.
