"Yes."

Either mcs or gmcs is used, depending on the tool.  If they haven't been
updated recently, they'll continue to use mcs (monodoc, mdassembler,
etc.).  If they've been updated recently (monodocer), then they'll use
gmcs.

And for apps where it matters, we have versions compiled with *both* mcs
and gmcs.  Examples: monop (mcs) and monop2 (gmcs); xsp (mcs) and xsp2
(gmcs).

So it's a massive "it depends."
