The latest builds here work around the mono issue:
http://dist.codehaus.org/boo/svn-builds/?M=D
Or you can build the latest version yourself from svn.

The tar.gz file is the simplest way to install on linux.
Download, then
tar -xzvf boo-0.7.6.2063.tar.gz
cd boo-0.7.6.2063
./configure --prefix /usr  ##default is /usr/local
make  ##does nothing really, binaries already there
sudo make install  ##or su

Then you can simply type 'booc', 'booish', or 'booi'.

It may require you have the mono-gac package installed and make of 
course.  I also have automake1.9 installed. I tested it on Ubuntu with 
its  mono 1.1.8.3 package.

If you want to build from source, install nant.
