Download the latest monolite from http://go-mono.com/daily/.  Untar it,
and copy dll's to $PATH/lib/ and exe's to $PATH/bin/, where $PATH is
your path (maybe /usr, /usr/local, or something else depending on how
you like things set up).  I had the same problem here recently, and that
solved it for me.
