Thanks Gonzalo, compiling ICU did help, but I still cannot run apps that
use ByteFX.Data Mysql provider. It's present, and it is seen by mcs:

$ ls /usr/lib/mono/gac/ByteFX.Data/0.7.6.1__0738eb9f132ed756/
ByteFX.Data.dll  __AssemblyInfo__

$ ls -l /usr/lib/mono/1.0/ByteFX.Data.dll
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           71 May 31
16:32 /usr/lib/mono/1.0/ByteFX.Data.dll
-> /usr/lib/mono/gac/ByteFX.Data/0.7.6.1__0738eb9f132ed756/ByteFX.Data.dll

$ mcs -r:System.Data -r:ByteFX.Data sample.cs
Compilation succeeded

$ mono ./sample.exe

Unhandled Exception: ByteFX.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException: Unable to
connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts

in <0x0007c> ByteFX.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection:Open ()

Code is fine, I can log in to the database from shell:

string connString =
	"Server=localhost;" +
        "Database=dbname;" +
        "User ID=user;" +
        "Password=pass";
dbh = new MySqlConnection(connString);
dbh.Open();

Even sqlsharp acts strange:

$ sqlsharp

SQL# \provider mysqlnet
The default Provider is LOADEXTPROVIDER
          Assembly: ByteFX.Data
  Connection Class: ByteFX.Data.MySQLClient.MySQLConnection
 
SQL# \connectionstring server=localhost;database=dbname;user
id=user;password=pass
 
SQL# \open
Attempt to open connection...
Loading external provider...
Error: unable to load the assembly of the provider: ByteFX.Data : File
'ByteFX.Data' not found.

I cannot figure it out. I've tried to install mono 0.91 from experimetal
debs and add latest ByteFX.Data manually with gacutil, but it didn't
work. Then I compiled Mono 0.93 from the source, but again something 
is broken, and it seems to be Debian specific (everything runs on the
Gentoo box).
