I just compiled a simple Hello app with mcs and tried to run it.
Got the "corlib.dll not found" error, suggesting I should
install it in /usr/local/lib.

Will look at MONO_PATH. I didn't do anything but install
the RPMS and compile a test app, I was assuming that
should be enough for getting started.
