After creating corlib_mcs.dll, you must rename it to corlib.dll to use this 
library.
corlib_mcs.dll is created, because the library corlib.dll is needed if you 
want to compile a program or a library.
And if youz compile a program, it would be at first deleted and then it 
would be step by step created.
But corlib.dll is needes by mcs, so you can not create it, in the same time. 
Thats the reason, why the created library have ann other name.

But rename corlib_mcs.dll to corlib.dll, then you can use your selfmade 
corlib.
