Hi Brian,

I didn't use the windows installer, but CVS.

I only needed to set the PATH like:
C:\> set PATH=c:\cygwin\home\myuser\go-mono\install\bin;%PATH%

And then my mcs.bat file is just (in install\bin):
@cd c:\cygwin\home\myuser\go-mono\install\bin
@set MONOARGS=
@:loop
@if x%1 == x goto :done
@set MONOARGS=%MONOARGS% %1
@shift
@:done
@mono ..\lib\mono\1.0\mcs.exe %MONOARGS%

No need to set any extra environment variable.
