These are awesome!  Would you mind licensing those scripts under the
GPL, LGPL or X11 licenses and allow us to distribute those as part of
Mono?

Ideally if we integrate this into the build, we will have configure
automatically generate the correct paths that will be embedded.

Very nice!  We need to check if someone can make the changes to run that
with wine/crossover-office.

We should also update the documentation after we ship these.  But this
is a nice usability feature.  A few weeks ago Don Box was making fun of
me because you had to run binaries with `mono app.exe' ;-)
