I've noticed that when a .NET assembly is referenced on a program
running on Windows, the casing of the assembly name is ignored, thus
when running the compiled program on Unix (or any real OS :O), Mono will
fail to load the assembly if only one character differs on the case.

Am I clear on this? Just to clarify my stupid english: 

I have a Classpath.dll on Windows. I compile the program with:

mcs /r:classpath chachacha.cs

which ends successfully.

Then when I run the prog in Linux, mono fails because it doesn't find
classpath.dll, and this is solved renaming the dll, but this is just
annoying.

Fill a bug report I should?
