The problem here is that, yes, monodoc is there in the GAC, but unless
told otherwise, mcs and asp.net compilation classes don't know anything
about it.

Possible solutions are:
      * Copy your monodoc.dll in bin.
      * Copy monodoc.dll to $PREFIX/lib/mono/1.0 and add a @assembly in
        the pages you want (mcs will be able to find it when
        -r:monodoc.dll is provided)
      * Add a CompilationOptions="-pkg:monodoc" attribute to your page.

I prefer the first one.
