[Mono-dev] CS0006: Cannot find assembly `mgnat.dll'

[Rafael Teixeira]

Normally such errors occur when the assembly p/invokes into native
code and the needed native library can't be found.

Set MONO_LOG_LEVEL="debug" and MONO_LOG_MASK="dll" and run again to
have more detailed information about the way mono is trying to load
your dll.
