Ok. I'm almost 90% sure that I did a make install after make bootstrap, 
but I will check that again as in almost 100% of the times I do this 
type of report incorrectly :)

I will let you know if I still have problems.

Hmmm, I think this has 99.999% of probability. As I just use the cvs 
since the first days I'm working with mono, in pre-GAC days, I think 
this library was there and was being found because I had install/lib in 
my LD_LIBRARY_PATH. :)

Thanks Raja. I already removed the install/lib/mscorlib.dll and I hope I 
don't get that out of sync problem.
