Yes, I am using gtar. also renamed the original solaris  "mcs" command too.
Now I downloaded latest mono-1.9 and tried to compile.

Compilation failed at "mcs" and  When I ran gmake from mcs folder this 
is what I got.

mkdir -p -- ../class/lib/default/
touch ../class/lib/default//.stamp
MONO_PATH="../class/lib/net_1_1_bootstrap:$MONO_PATH" 
/tmp/mono-1.9/runtime/mono-wrapper  
../class/lib/net_1_1_bootstrap/mcs.exe /codepage:65001   -d:NET_1_1 
-d:ONLY_1_1 -debug -target:exe -out:mcs.exe cs-parser.cs  @mcs.exe.sources
Segmentation Fault - core dumped
gmake[2]: *** [../class/lib/default/mcs.exe] Error 139
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/mono-1.9/mcs/mcs'
gmake[1]: *** [do-all] Error 2
