Nothing overly stupid.  :-)

Mono uses a search path for assemblies in a similar fashion to gcc.
From the manpage:

       MONO_PATH
              Provides a search path to mono and  mint  where  to
              look  for library files.  Directories are separated
              by the platform path separator  (colons  on  unix).
              Example: /home/username/lib:/usr/local/mono/lib

So, run a locate for your gnome-sharp.dll.  If it's in the default
/usr/local/mono/lib, run:

   $ export MONO_PATH=/usr/local/mono/lib

The equivalent to this in mcs would be specifying '-r' to link against a
dll like glib-sharp or gtk-sharp.

Hope this helps,

- Chris.
