[Mono-dev] Can't find C runtime library while installing mono

[Bill Seurer]

Just a follow-up on how we resolved this.  It turned out that glib (gmodule
specifically) doesn't handle libraries on AIX (and thus PASE on i5/OS)
properly.  We did a little bit of hacking on it and now the problem does
not occur.
