Your file listing looks fine except libgdiplus.dll.so. It is not
required if you are running the latest code. Please make sure that you
are using latest source of libgdiplus (cvs module: libgdiplus) also. If
that also does not help I would suggest you to build mono/mcs from the
latest code from CVS, http://www.go-mono.com/anoncvs.html
System.Drawing related modules are mono, mcs, and libgdiplus.

What was that problem?

In one mail you wrote:

I think this problem is solved now.

If you find building the source difficult, please file a bug report on
this build and wait for next build release ;-)
