That feels like painting yourself into a corner to me. Using SetMscorlib would require modifying DefineDynamicAssembly in a way that would make it hard to remain compatible with .NET reflection.

Please consider that from my point of view, gmcs building mscorlib is a complete corner case, not what the API should be optimized for.
