You need to export the following variables so that `configure' finds
your /opt/mono-1.2.3.1 install instead of your OS-provided install:

	export PATH=/opt/mono-1.2.3.1/bin:$PATH
	export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/mono-1.2.3.1/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
	export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/mono-1.2.3.1/lib
	export MONO_GAC_PREFIX=/opt/mono-1.2.3.1:/usr
