[Mono-list] make install building mcs package

[Ian Joyce]

You need to have mcs or mono in your shells path.  Type 'env' at your
prompt to see what directories are in your path.  You'll see /usr/bin
is in that list.  So you'll either need to continue to do the
symlinking or add /opt/bin to your shells path.
