FSharp.Core.dll from Microsoft F# 2.0

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US;
rv:1.9.2.11) Gecko/20101012 Firefox/3.6.11

I'm trying to install Microsoft's F# compiler (version 2.0,
http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/cambridge/projects/fsharp/release.aspx).
The installer tries to sign the DLL FSharp.Core.dll with the key available on
http://anonsvn.mono-project.com/source/trunk/mcs/class/mono.snk :

sn -q -R bin/FSharp.Core.dll mono.snk

This results in ERROR: Unknown blob format.

Subsequently, gacutil -i bin/FSharp.Core.dll fails with an error message:
Failure adding assembly bin/FSharp.Core.dll to the cache: Strong name cannot be
verified for delay-signed assembly.

I'm using Mono 2.8 for Mac OS X (downloaded on Oct 25, 2010 from
mono-project.com) on Mac OS X 10.6.4).

Any help would be appriciated

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download and unpack x86 version of F# from
http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/cambridge/projects/fsharp/release.aspx
2. Obtain http://anonsvn.mono-project.com/source/trunk/mcs/class/mono.snk 
3. sn -q -R bin/FSharp.Core.dll mono.snk
4. gacutil -i bin/FSharp.Core.dll
Actual Results:  
3. ERROR: Unknown blob format
4. Failure adding assembly bin/FSharp.Core.dll to the cache: Strong name cannot
be verified for delay-signed assembly.

Expected Results:  
bin/Fsharp.Core.dll should be installed into the GAC.
