[Mono-list] Compiling egg-chicken libraries

[Ben Maurer]

Hello,

The problem is that there are some dependencies built into the public
api of the class libraries that we can't redesign because it would break
binary compat with assemblies built on the Microsoft runtime.

Honestly, if I had been designing it, I would not have built in the
dependency.
