Couldn't they get around that by not including mcs in their distribution?
What's to stop them from implementing the Mono.CSharp compiler interface
with dummy code, linking against it and then shipping?  If done in that way,
they have not touched, included, or linked against the mcs project---but it
would still work with mcs.
